Abstract
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for wireless communication which is advantageous in improving the efficiency of beam sweeping by a terminal device to multiple cells, completing beam pairing relatively quickly, and reducing power consumption. The method includes the step of a terminal device receiving first information transmitted from a network device, the network device corresponding to a serving cell of the terminal device, and the first information being used by the terminal device to determine the beam direction of a first transmit beam and / or first receive beam in a first time unit, the first information including at least one of the following: whether the transmit beam sweeps performed by a first neighbor cell and the serving cell are synchronized; an offset value of the transmit beam sweep performed by the first neighbor cell relative to the transmit beam sweep performed by the serving cell; and the beam direction and transmission time of a plurality of transmit beams corresponding to the serving cell and / or the first neighbor cell.
