This application provides a method and an apparatus for sensing measurement. In a technical solution of this application, a transmit end of data may send an indication frame to a receive end of the data, where the indication frame may indicate a spatial mapping matrix used by the transmit end of the data to send the data to the receive end of the data. In this way, the receive end of the data can eliminate impact of spatial mapping on channel state information based on the spatial mapping matrix, to obtain actual channel state information, thereby completing sensing, positioning, and the like on an ambient environment or a passive target by using the obtained actual channel state information.
