1. An information sending method, comprises:
receiving configuration information configured to indicate that a same transport block is provided with Q transmission opportunities in R consecutive slots, wherein Q is an integer greater than or equal to 1, R is an integer and 0<R≤Q; and
sending the transport block according to the configuration information, wherein the configuration information comprises at least one of:
the transport block is not sent at a transmission opportunity #t; and
in the same slot, in response to that a position of time domain resource of the transmission opportunity #t and positions of time domain resources of other transmission opportunities are not consecutive in terms of time domain, no DMRS or information is sent at the transmission opportunity #t;
wherein t is a transmission opportunity index and is an integer, and 0<t≤Q, wherein the transmission opportunity #t is part of the Q transmission opportunities,
wherein the transmission opportunity #t is determined in the one of following ways:
in response to that a time domain resource of one transmission opportunity of the Q transmission opportunities is less than a predefined value N, the one transmission opportunity is the transmission opportunity #t; wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 1;
in response to that a time domain resource of the one transmission opportunity is less than M=f(L), the one transmission opportunity is the transmission opportunity #t, wherein L refers to any one of the following time domain resource lengths: a time domain resource length of one of nominal transmission opportunities, a time domain resource length of a first actual transmission opportunity, a total time domain resource length of all actual transmission opportunities, a shortest time domain resource length among those of the actual transmission opportunities, a time domain resource length of a nominal or actual transmission opportunity corresponding to any one of Redundancy Version RV={0,1,2,3}), and a longest time domain resource length among those of the actual transmission opportunities; and
in response to that a target bitrate of the one transmission opportunity is greater than a predefined target bitrate, the one transmission opportunity is the transmission opportunity #t.
