The method comprises, in response to being configured with at least one SRS resource set by a network device and the at least one SRS resource set being associated with first and second CSI-RS resources, receiving, from the network device, a first CSI-RS transmitted via a first TRP over the first CSI-RS resource and a second CSI-RS transmitted via a second TRP over the second CSI-RS resource. The method further comprises determining, based on the received first and second CSI-RSs, first precoding information for uplink transmission via the first TRP and second precoding information for uplink transmission via the second TRP respectively. The method further comprises determining, from the first and second TRPs, at least one TRP for uplink transmission, the at least one TRP being associated with third precoding information selected from the first and second precoding information. In addition, the method further comprises transmitting, based on the third precoding information, at least one SRS to the network device via the at least one TRP.
