Disclosed by the present application are a configuration for duplication transmission and a duplication transmission method and device, comprising: determining each radio bearer of a terminal; and carrying out duplication transmission configuration for each radio bearer. The terminal receives the configuration for duplication transmission carried out at a network side and carries out duplication transmission according to the configuration. By employing the present application, duplication transmission may be applied flexibly for different bearer characteristics, high reliability provided by duplication transmission may be obtained, the utilization efficiency of radio resources may be increased, and resource waste is avoided. Meanwhile, air interface control signaling overhead is reduced.
