Abstract
An apparatus and method in a wireless communication system and a computer readable storage medium. The apparatus comprises a processing circuit, which is configured to: configure a sounding reference signal (SRS) mapping structure for a user equipment on the basis of at least the number of antenna ports of the user equipment and the number of transmitting beams and/or receiving beams to be scanned; and notify the user equipment of the SRS mapping structure, wherein the SRS mapping structure at least comprises SRS resource settings for achieving uplink beam management and channel state information (CSI) acquisition at the same time, thereby reducing the system time delay and improving the uplink resource utilization rate.
