Abstract

A reference signal indication method, a network device and a terminal device are provided. The method includes: configuring a target reference signal pattern to be used for a terminal device in later transmission occasions, wherein the target reference signal pattern is a reference signal pattern selected from multiple predefined reference signal patterns; and not transmitting reference signal indication information to the terminal device, in a case that the target reference signal pattern is a default reference signal pattern; or not transmitting the reference signal indication information to the terminal device, in a case that the target reference signal pattern is the same as a reference signal pattern indicated by a previous piece of reference signal indication information.
