Reference signal notification method and device

Provided is a reference signal notification method, comprising: a network device sending a reference signal notification message, the reference signal notification message comprising time resource information of a reference signal. By adopting the embodiment of the invention, the reference signal notifies the UE of the reference signal configuration message, especially the information about the CSI-RS, so that the network equipment can flexibly provide the reference signal, especially flexibly provide the CSI-RS, and the UE can more effectively receive the reference signal, especially the CSI-RS. 本发明实施例提供了一种参考信号通知方法，包括：网络设备发送参考信号通知消息，所述参考信号通知消息包括参考信号的时间资源信息。采用本发明实施例，本发明的参考信号通知UE参考信号配置消息，特别是关于CSI-RS的信息，能使网络设备灵活提供参考信号，特别是灵活地提供CSI-RS，并使得UE能够更加有效接收参考信号，特别是CSI-RS。
