Abstract
A method for radio link monitoring on an unlicensed spectrum and a communications apparatus is provided. The method includes: A terminal device determines one or more channel occupancy times (COTs). The terminal device detects one or more downlink reference signals within the one or more COTs. The terminal device determines, based on the downlink reference signal detected within the one or more COTs, whether a channel needs to be reconnected. According to the method for radio link monitoring on an unlicensed spectrum that is provided in this application, accuracy of radio link monitoring performed on an unlicensed spectrum can be ensured, precision of a result of the radio link monitoring can be improved, and a more accurate result of the radio link monitoring can be obtained, thereby improving communication efficiency and communication quality.
