1. A monitoring method, comprising:
demodulating, by a network device, first information from a terminal device, wherein the first information is transmitted based on a first repetition number, the first repetition number is less than or equal to a second repetition number, the second repetition number is a maximum repeat transmission number of the first information, and each of the first repetition number and second repetition number are positive integers; and
starting or restarting, by the network device, a timer at a scheduling end moment of the first information, and sending, in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) search space before the timer expires or stops, second information in response to the first information, wherein the scheduling end moment of the first information is a transmission end moment for transmission of the first information based on the second repetition number.
