Abstract

Embodiments of this application provide a beam management method, a terminal, a network device, and a storage medium. The method includes: when a quantity of reference signals whose RSSIs are greater than a first preset value in reference signals received on a first time-frequency resource on one of one or more beams is less than a second preset value, detecting, by the terminal, a reference signal and/or downlink indication information (used to indicate a sending status of the reference signal on the first time-frequency resource and/or a second time-frequency resource on the beam) from the network device on the second time-frequency resource on the beam. Further, when receiving the downlink indication information on the second time-frequency resource on the beam, the terminal continues to detect a reference signal from the network device on the beam, thereby saving communications system resources.
