Duplication transmission method and device
A duplication transmission method and device, used for solving the problem in existing technology of a scheme for implementing packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) duplication having yet to be implemented in a central unit/distribute unit (CU/DU) separation scenario. According to the embodiments of the present invention, after determining the need for PDCP duplication transmission on a radio bearer, a CU sends a PDCP data packet transmitted on the radio bearer to a DU and instructs the DU to carry out the PDCP duplication transmission; and the DU sends the PDCP data packet to multiple radio link control (RLC) entities corresponding to the radio bearer so as to carry out the PDCP duplication transmission. Since the CU may instruct the DU to perform the PDCP duplication transmission, the PDCP data packet is subject to duplication transmission in the CU/DU separation scenario, thereby further improving the system performance.
