Abstract
A reference signal (RS) sending method and a communication apparatus are provided, which may be applied to a scenario in which an RS is sent based on aperiodic time-domain behavior. The method includes: a terminal device obtains downlink control information (DCI); determines first time information based on the DCI; determines, based on the first time information and a time unit in which the DCI is located, a time unit for sending an RS; and sends the RS in the determined time unit for sending the RS. Correspondingly, a network device determines the first time information based on the DCI; determines, based on the first time information and the time unit in which the DCI is located, a time unit for receiving the RS; and receives the RS in the determined time unit for receiving the RS.
