Abstract
This application discloses a resource indication method, a network device, and a terminal device, to improve utilization of a resource mapped to a DMRS port. The method includes: sending, by a network device, configuration information to a terminal device, so that the terminal device determines, based on the configuration information, that a second resource in first resources is used to transmit first information or that a third resource in first resources is not used to transmit first information, where the first resources are resources mapped to a DMRS port. In this way, the terminal device can multiplex the resources mapped to the DMRS port. When some of the first resources are not used to transmit a DMRS, the resources may be indicated to determine whether the resources may be used to transmit the first information, for example, the first information may be data, control information, or other information different from DMRS information, thereby ensuring maximum use of the resources mapped to the DMRS port, and improving resource utilization.
