Embodiments relate to the internet of things communications field, and provide a data transmission method, device, and system, and a storage medium. The method includes: determining a first parameter, a second parameter, a first gap threshold, and a second gap threshold; determining, based on the first parameter and the first gap threshold, whether a gap exists in transmission on a downlink control channel; sending downlink control information through the downlink control channel based on a determining result; determining, based on the second parameter and the second gap threshold, whether a gap exists in transmission on a downlink data channel; and sending a transport block through the downlink data channel based on a determining result.
