Abstract
This application discloses a reference signal transmission method and an apparatus. A network node sends reference signals by mapping the reference signals to at least one resource unit, where the at least one resource unit includes a plurality of sub-resource units; and the network node receives, from the terminal, measurement information related to part of the plurality of sub-resource units. The terminal selects, based on configuration information of the reference signals, part of the measurement information to report, so that a quantity of channel resources occupied by the measurement information is reduced.
