US Patent 11997538 Communication method and communications apparatus

A communication method enables a base station to allocate a radio resource to a data packet of a time sensitive networking (TSN) network in a scenario in which the TSN network transmits the data packet through a 5G network. The method includes: obtaining, by an access network device, a first traffic pattern, and allocating a radio resource to a first traffic based on the first traffic pattern. The first traffic pattern includes time information of the first traffic with respect to a first clock. The first clock is a clock used by a first network. The access network device belongs to the first network. The time information includes a time point and/or a period at/in which a data packet of the first traffic arrives at the first network.
