Le procédé de communication comprend les étapes suivantes : un dispositif terminal reçoit et mesure des signaux de référence portés sur une pluralité de ressources de fréquence différentes, détermine des premières informations sur la base d'un résultat de mesure de phase d'un signal de référence porté sur une première ressource de fréquence et d'un résultat de mesure de phase d'un signal de référence porté sur une seconde ressource de fréquence, et envoie les premières informations à d'autres dispositifs, les premières informations étant utilisées pour indiquer un angle de direction. Dans le procédé de communication, un dispositif terminal reçoit et mesure des signaux de référence portés sur des ressources de fréquence différentes, et envoie des premières informations pour indiquer un angle de direction, de sorte que d'autres dispositifs puissent obtenir un angle de direction selon les premières informations. L'angle de direction est déterminé sur la base des résultats de mesure de phase des signaux de référence portés sur des ressources de fréquence différentes ; par conséquent, l'angle de direction obtenu est unique, ce qui permet de résoudre le problème d'ambiguïté de mesure d'angle.
