Communication method and communications device
This application provides a communication method and a communications device. The method includes: determining, by a terminal device, a cell in which a beam failure occurs; and sending, by the terminal device, first indication information to a network device, where the first indication information is used to indicate the cell in which the beam failure occurs.
1. A method comprising:
determining, by a communications device, a cell in which a beam failure occurs; and
sending, by the communications device, a media access control control element (MAC CE) to a network device, wherein the MAC CE carries first indication information and the first indication information comprises a bitmap indicating the cell in which the beam failure occurs, wherein a priority of the MAC CE is higher than priorities of buffer status reports (BSRs), power headroom reports (PHRs), and data of a logical channel other than an uplink-common control channel (UL-CCCH), and wherein the priority of the MAC CE is lower than priorities of a cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) MAC CE, and data of a UL-CCCH logical channel.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first indication information further indicates a target candidate signal.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the target candidate signal corresponds to the cell in which the beam failure occurs.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the target candidate signal is a synchronization signal (SS) or a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS).
5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
determining by the communications device, a target candidate beam whose signal quality is higher than a preset threshold.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the signal quality is reference signal received power of a synchronization signal (SS) or reference signal received power of a CSI-RS.
7. An apparatus, comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory memory, wherein the memory stores an execution instruction, and the processor executes the execution instruction to enable the apparatus to perform following steps:
determining a cell in which a beam failure occurs; and
sending a media access control control element (MAC CE) to a network device, wherein the MAC CE carries first indication information and the first indication information comprises a bitmap indicating the cell in which the beam failure occurs, wherein a priority of the MAC CE is higher than priorities of buffer status reports (BSRs), power headroom reports (PHRs), and data of a logical channel other than an uplink-common control channel (UL-CCCH), and wherein the priority of the MAC CE is lower than priorities of data of a cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) MAC CE, and data of a UL-CCCH logical channel.
8. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the first indication information further indicates a target candidate signal.
9. The apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the target candidate signal corresponds to the cell in which the beam failure occurs.
10. The apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the target candidate signal is a synchronization signal (SS) or a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS).
11. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the processor executes the execution instruction to further enable the apparatus to perform:
determining a target candidate beam whose signal quality is higher than a preset threshold.
12. An apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory memory, wherein the memory stores an execution instruction, and the processor executes the execution instruction to enable the apparatus to perform following steps:
receiving a media access control control element (MAC CE) from a terminal device, wherein the MAC CE carries first indication information, and the first indication information comprises a bitmap indicating a cell in which a beam failure occurs, wherein a priority of the MAC CE is higher than priorities of buffer status reports (BSRs), power headroom reports (PHRs), and data of a logical channel other than an uplink-common control channel (UL-CCCH), and wherein the priority of the MAC CE is lower than priorities of a cell radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) MAC CE, and data of a UL-CCCH logical channel; and
determining, based on the first indication information, the cell in which the beam failure occurs.
13. The apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the first indication information further indicates a target candidate signal.
14. The apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the target candidate signal corresponds to the cell in which the beam failure occurs.
15. The apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the target candidate signal is a synchronization signal (SS) or a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS).
16. The apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein a signal quality of the target candidate signal is reference signal received power of a synchronization signal (SS) or reference signal received power of a CSI-RS.
