Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de mesure. Le procédé comprend : quand le nombre maximal de ressources de signal de référence prises en charge est M, la mesure de M ressources de signal de référence parmi N ressources de signal de référence dans une première période de ressources pour obtenir M éléments d'informations de mesure de signal, N étant un nombre entier supérieur à 1, et M étant un nombre entier inférieur à N ; et l'envoi de premières informations à un dispositif de réseau, les premières informations étant utilisées pour indiquer les M ressources de signal de référence mesurées. Selon le procédé, quand le nombre N de ressources de signal de référence configurées par le dispositif de réseau est supérieur au nombre maximal de ressources de signal de référence prises en charge par le dispositif terminal, le dispositif de réseau n'a pas besoin de reconfigurer, au moyen d'une signalisation, des ressources de signal de référence pour le dispositif terminal, et le dispositif terminal peut mesurer seulement les M ressources de signal de référence, ce qui permet de réduire le surdébit de signalisation, et de réduire également une charge de mesure du dispositif terminal.
