Data, transmission comprises when sending data to a receiver through a channel, receiving, through the channel, at least one reference signal sent by the receiver; and resending the data according to the at least one reference signal. The present application further discloses other methods and apparatuses for transmitting data. Using the various embodiments, an issue that quality of service (QoS) cannot be ensured due to a lag of a reference signal in conventional data transmission is avoided, and the quality of data transmission can be improved.
