Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A UE may identify a non-dormant mode configuration for measuring cross-link interference in a non-dormant mode for a cell. The UE may receive, from a base station, an indication to switch to a dormant mode for the cell and may identify a dormant mode configuration for measuring the cross-link interference in the dormant mode. The UE may measure the cross-link interference in the dormant mode based on the identified dormant mode configuration and receiving the indication to switch to the dormant mode. The UE may transmit, to the base station, an indication of the measured cross-link interference.

A communication method includes: sending first information, where the first information is used for enabling a terminal to determine whether to initiate an artificial intelligence or machine learning operation-type service.

This application relates to the field of communication technologies, and discloses a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A terminal device receives indication information from a first access network device. The indication information is used to indicate to fall back a capability of the terminal device to a first protocol version. The terminal device communicates, based on the indication information, with the first access network device by using first capability information. A protocol version corresponding to the first capability information is lower than or equal to the first protocol version. In this method, because a network device can explicitly indicate to fall back the capability of the terminal device to the first protocol version, the terminal device can specially reduce the capability, so as to quickly resolve a communication problem caused by incompatibility between the terminal device and the access network device.
