Abstract

A wireless communications apparatus and a wireless communication method are provided. The method includes: deactivating a first wireless communication capability of a first communications module, so that the first communications module does not support the first wireless communication capability; activating a first wireless communication capability of a second communications module, so that the second communications module supports the first wireless communication capability; sending a first uplink message, where the first uplink message is used to indicate that a first user identity does not support the first wireless communication capability; and sending a second uplink message, where the second uplink message is used to indicate that a second user identity supports the first wireless communication capability. In embodiments of this application, the wireless communications apparatus can provide a better service during communication by using the second user identity, without changing a correspondence between the user identity and the communications module.
