AI summary

Embodiments of this application provide a communication resource determining method and apparatus, which may be applied to the internet of vehicles, for example, V2X, LTE-V, and V2V, or may be applied to fields such as D2D, intelligent driving, and an intelligent and connected vehicle. The method includes: determining, by a first device, a first frequency domain resource, where the first frequency domain resource is a frequency domain resource occupied by a data channel, and a frequency bandwidth of the first frequency domain resource is N frequency domain units; determining a second frequency domain resource based on a frequency bandwidth of a first channel and the first frequency domain resource, where the frequency bandwidth of the first channel is M frequency domain units, and the second frequency domain resource is a subset of the first frequency domain resource, where M ≤ N, and M and N are positive integers; and sending, by the first device, the first channel on the second frequency domain resource. According to the method and the apparatus, a frequency domain resource of a control channel can be flexibly determined based on a frequency bandwidth, to reduce interference between receivers while ensuring data transmission efficiency.
