SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS

Embodiments of this application disclose a signal processing method and an apparatus, which may be applied to a wireless communication system, for example, a new radio NR system. The method includes: A terminal device receives first indication information from a network device, where the first indication information indicates whether a first reference signal in a first time period is associated with a second signal in a second time period, the first reference signal is associated with a first signal in the first time period, and a start moment of the second time period is after an end moment of the first time period. The terminal device processes the second signal based on the first indication information. The terminal device may learn, based on the first indication information, whether the first reference signal in the first time period is associated with the second signal in the second time period. This facilitates subsequent processing of the second signal and helps the terminal device determine whether to store the first reference signal.
