    Abstract: This application provides a reference signal sending method, a reference signal receiving method, a network device, and a terminal device, to perform CSI (Channel State Information) measurement by using more precoding vectors (or precoding matrices), to measure more equivalent channels, thereby improving flexibility and a spatial degree of freedom of network device scheduling. The method includes: performing, by the network device, precoder cycling on a first reference signal by using at least two precoding vectors, to obtain a precoded first reference signal, where the precoded first reference signal is borne in a plurality of physical resource groups, and signals borne in any two adjacent physical resource groups correspond to different precoding vectors; and sending, by the network device, the precoded first reference signal to the terminal device by using the plurality of physical resource groups, where the first reference signal is used by the terminal device to perform CSI measurement.

    Abstract: This application provides a method for configuring a channel state information reporting band, a reporting method, and a corresponding apparatus. The method includes: determining a channel state information subband size based on a bandwidth part BWP; and determining, a quantity of channel state information subbands included in a channel state information reporting band, based on a carrier bandwidth CC bandwidth or the bandwidth part BWP bandwidth or a channel state information reference signal CSI-RS bandwidth, and the channel state information subband size. The method further includes: determining an actual quantity of resource blocks included in a starting subband and an actual quantity of resource blocks included in an ending subband in the channel state information subband. Implementation of this application makes configuration of a quantity and size of subbands in a CSI reporting band more flexible, and reduces complexity of terminal addressing.

    Abstract: The application provides manner for communicating channel state information (CSI) in a communication network. A preset length is used for equalizing lengths of CSI to be reported. The preset length is determined based on a quantity of CSI-reference signal (RS) ports. A communication device determines whether a total length of one or more indication information items to be included in the CSI is less than the preset length. If the total length of the one or more indication information items to be included in the CSI is less than the preset length, the communication device adds one or more padding bits, to obtain a CSI bit sequence including the one or more indication information items and the one or more padding bits. A total length of the CSI bit sequence is consistent with the preset length. The communication device then outputs the CSI bit sequence.
