Abstract
Embodiments of this application disclose a communication method and an apparatus, and relate to the communications field, to resolve a problem of how to simultaneously perform transmission by using a plurality of light sources and increase transmission efficiency in a multi-light source scenario in an optical camera communications system. A specific solution is: generating N physical frames, where each of the physical frames includes a preamble, a mode indication, and valid data, the mode indication is used to indicate a sending mode of N light sources, the sending mode is a diversity mode or a multiplexing mode, and N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2; and sending the N physical frames by using the N light sources, where one light source sends one physical frame. The embodiments of this application are used in an optical camera communication process.
