Abstract: The present application provides a communication method and a related apparatus. The method comprises: receiving a wireless protocol data unit, the wireless protocol data unit comprising preemption indication information, and the preemption indication information being used for indicating whether preemption is allowed; determining whether a response frame exists; and, when the preemption indication information indicates that preemption is allowed, sending a preemption request frame on the basis of a determination result of the response frame. If the preemption request frame is sent during transmission of the response frame, a recipient may not be able to successfully receive the preemption request frame. According to the described technical solution, an effective sending mechanism for the preemption request frame is provided, whether the response frame exists can be determined in advance by means of such a sending mechanism, and then the preemption request frame is sent on the basis of an existence result. In this way, occurrences of a conflict between the response frame and the preemption request frame can be reduced.
