1. A data scheduling method, comprising:
receiving, by a terminal device, downlink control information (DCI) from a network device, wherein the DCI schedules N transport blocks (TBs);
determining, by the terminal device, that a downlink channel carrying M TBs is transmitted in consecutive first downlink time units, wherein the M TBs are first M TBs in the N TBs, wherein a start time of the first downlink time units is determined based on an end time of transmission of the DCI and a first delay, wherein the first delay is determined based on the DCI, wherein N is a positive integer greater than 1, and wherein M is a positive integer greater than 1 and less than or equal to N;
receiving, by the terminal device, the downlink channel carrying the M TBs from the network device in the first downlink time units;
determining, by the terminal device, that acknowledgements (ACKs) or negative acknowledgements (NACKs) corresponding to the M TBs are transmitted in consecutive first uplink time units, wherein a start time of the first uplink time units is determined based on an end time of the first downlink time units and a second delay; and
sending, by the terminal device, the ACKs or NACKs corresponding to the M TBs to the network device in the first uplink time units.
