A method for PH calculation and a terminal are provided. The method includes: receiving a path loss reference change indication; and calculating a PH by using a specific path loss reference, where the specific path loss reference includes a path loss reference before receiving the path loss reference change indication, or a changed path loss reference indicated by the path loss reference change indication.

Embodiments of the application provide a communications method and apparatus. A target cell is determined based on measurement results of N measured cells and a preset value when there is a first cell satisfying a report trigger condition. A measurement result of the target cell is sent to a base station. A terminal may not only send the measurement result of the cell satisfying the trigger condition to the base station, but also send a measurement result of another cell to the base station. In this way, a quantity of cells that can be selected during determining of handover can be increased, to help the base station select a suitable cell for the terminal.

Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and a communications apparatus. The method includes: generating a log record, where the log record is recorded by performing MDT log measurement when a terminal is in an inactive state; and when the terminal is in a connected state, sending the generated log record to a network device.

Provided are a neighbor relation maintenance method and apparatus, including: a first node configuring measurement and instructing a terminal to report ANR-related information, or requesting a second node to configure measurement and instruct the terminal to report the ANR-related information. If the first node configures measurement and instructs the terminal to report ANR-related information, the first node maintains a neighbor relation of a cell in the first node based on the ANR-related information, and forwards the ANR-related information to the second node for maintaining a neighbor relation of a cell in the second node; if the second node configures measurement and instructs the terminal to report ANR-related information, the second node maintains the neighbor relation of the cell in the second node based on the ANR-related information, and forwards the ANR-related information to the first node for maintaining neighbor relation of the cell in the first node.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment or a base station may determine that a condition for entering a reduced monitoring state is satisfied, wherein the reduced monitoring state uses at least one of: a diminished radio frequency chain configuration, a diminished channel monitoring configuration, a restriction on receiving or transmitting a shared channel or a control channel, or a combination thereof; and communicate using the reduced monitoring state. Numerous other aspects are provided.
