为了更好地理解本申请实施例提供的技术方案，首先对本申请实施例涉及的技术术语进行介绍。
(1)定时提前命令(Timing Advance Command，TAC)
网络设备向终端设备发送TAC，以指示终端设备TA的具体内容。示例性的，TAC可以指示TA值。
(2)定时提前组(Timing Advance Group，TAG)
一个TAG可与一个或多个小区关联。示例性的，若TAG1与小区a和小区b关联，那么关联于TAG1的小区a和小区b的TA值可以相同。
在当前的第三代合作伙伴计划(3rd Generation Partnership Project，3GPP)38.331协议中，一个小区可配置关联于一个TAG。在本申请实施例中，一个小区可配置关联于一个或多个TAG，示例性的，第一小区可配置关联于第一TAG，可选的，第一小区还可配置关联于第二TAG。

(3)控制资源集(Control Resource Set，Coreset)；控制资源集池索引(Control Resource Set Pool Index，CoresetPoolIndex)
Coreset用于配置物理下行控制信道(Physical Downlink Control Channel，PDCCH)频域上占据的频域资源和时域上占用的正交频分复用(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing，OFDM)符号数等信息。Coreset在频域上可包括多个物理资源块(Physical Resource Block，PRB)，时域上可包括1-3个OFDM符号。
Coreset可由高层参数PDCCH-Config配置，高层参数ControlResourceSet可配置CoresetPoolIndex的取值，CoresetPoolIndex的取值可为0、1。
可以理解的是，ControlResourceSet关联于其配置信息包含的CORESETPoolIndex。PDCCH关联于CORESETPoolIndex，可以认为是PDCCH关联于其关联的ControlResourceSet所关联的CORESETPoolIndex。在本申请实施例中，CoresetPoolIndex与CORESETPoolIndex为相同含义。
可选的，在本申请实施例中，第一CoresetPoolIndex可以是取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex，第二CoresetPoolIndex可以是取值为1的CoresetPoolIndex。或者，第一CoresetPoolIndex可以是取值为1的CoresetPoolIndex，第二CoresetPoolIndex可以是取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex。
(4)发送接收点(transmission and reception point，TRP)
可以理解的是，在本申请实施例中，TRP可以认为是CoresetPoolIndex所关联的网络侧发送接收点。举例来说，取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex所关联的网络侧发送接收点为第一 TRP，取值为1的CoresetPoolIndex所关联的网络侧发送接收点为第二TRP。
可以理解的是，在本申请实施例中，1个小区可以由1个TRP构成，也可以由多个TRP构成。此处的TRP是个逻辑概念，1个TRP可以是一个实体网络站点，如：射频拉远头(Remote Radio Head，RRH)、基站，1个TRP也可以是由多个实体网络站点构成的。
关于TRP的具体定义，本申请，不做限制，不再赘述。
请参见图2，为本申请实施例提供的一种配置方法的流程示意图，图2对应实施例中第一配置信息用于配置CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA。如图2所示，该配置方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤：
S201、网络设备确定第一配置信息；第一配置信息用于配置第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA和/或第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA；第一CoresetPoolIndex、第二CoresetPoolIndex均与第一小区关联。
第一配置信息可以包括第一配置信息1和/或第一配置信息2，第一配置信息1用于配置第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA，第一配置信息2用于配置第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA。
其中，第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA的含义为：对于处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备，在该终端设备向网络设备发送关联于第一CoresetPoolIndex的上行信道或者上行信号的情况下，可由该第一TA获得上行传输的TA值。同理，第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA的含义为：对于处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备，在该终端设备向网络设备发送关联于第二CoresetPoolIndex的上行信道或者上行信号的情况下，可由该第二TA获得上行传输的TA值。
可以理解的是，关联于第一CoresetPoolIndex的上行信道或者上行信号，可以是关联于第一CoresetPoolIndex的PDCCH所调度或者触发的上行信道或上行信号，也可以是网络配置的或者协议预定义的关联于第一CoresetPoolIndex的上行信道或者上行信号。
可以理解的是，关联于第二CoresetPoolIndex的上行信道或者上行信号，可以是关联于第二CoresetPoolIndex的PDCCH所调度或者触发的上行信道或上行信号，也可以是网络配置的或者协议预定义的关联于第二CoresetPoolIndex的上行信道或者上行信号。
在一种实现方式中，该第一CoresetPoolIndex可以与第一TRP具有关联关系，第一TRP的TA为前述第一TA；第二CoresetPoolIndex可以与第二TRP具有关联关系，第二TRP的TA为前述第二TA；第一TRP和第二TRP均属于第一小区。换言之，根据某CoresetPoolIndex(如第一CoresetPoolIndex)对应的TA，以及CoresetPoolIndex与TRP之间的关联关系，可以确定与该第一CoresetPoolIndex关联的第一TRP的TA，第一TRP的TA即为第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA。或者，根据某TRP(如第一TRP)的TA，以及CoresetPoolIndex与TRP之间的关联关系，可以确定与该第一TRP关联的第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA，第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA即为第一TRP的TA。
上述第一CoresetPoolIndex与第一TRP具有关联关系，第二CoresetPoolIndex与第二TRP具有关联关系用于举例，在其他实现方式中，第一CoresetPoolIndex可以与第二TRP具有关联关系，第二CoresetPoolIndex可以与第一TRP具有关联关系。
其中，第一TRP的TA的含义为：对于处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备，在该终端设备向网络设备第一TRP发送关联于第一TRP的上行信道或者上行信号的情况下，可由该TA获得上行传输的TA值。同理，第二TRP的TA的含义为：对于处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备，在该终端设备向网络设备第二TRP发送关联于第二TRP的上行信道或者上行信号的情况下，可由该TA获得上行传输的TA值。
S202、网络设备发送该第一配置信息。相应的，终端设备接收该第一配置信息。
网络设备向终端设备发送第一配置信息。示例性的，网络设备在第一小区中广播该第一配置信息。相应的，处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备可接收到该第一配置信息。可选的，第一小区可以为该终端设备的服务小区。
前述第一配置信息1和第一配置信息2可以携带在相同的消息中也可以携带在不同的消息中。在第一配置信息1携带在消息1中，且第一配置信息2携带在消息2中的情况下，本申请实施例对网络设备发送消息1和消息2的顺序不做限定。例如，网络设备可以先发送消息1，或者，也可以先发送消息2，或者，也可以同时发送消息1和消息2。可选的，该第一配置信息可以携带于媒体接入控制-控制单元(Medium Access Control-Control Element，MAC-CE)信令中。
在一种实现方式中，第一小区可关联于一个TAG(如第一TAG)，第一TAG对应的TA为第一TA。此时，网络设备可通过下发配置信息以配置与第一小区关联的第一TAG。示例性的，网络设备发送第二配置信息，相应的，终端设备接收该第二配置信息，该第二配置信息用于配置与第一小区关联的第一TAG，具体的，该第二配置信息可包括第一TAG的标识信息(TAG ID)。其中，第一TAG与第一CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系。可选的，第一小区还可关联于第二TAG，第二TAG对应的TA为第二TA。此时，第一小区关联于两个TAG，前述第二配置信息还可用于配置与第一小区关联的第二TAG。其中，第二TAG与第二CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系。可选的，该第二配置信息可携带于无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control，RRC)中。在本申请实施例中，TAG与CoresetPoolIndex之间的关联关系可由协议预定义，或者，可以由网络设备指示。示例性的，网络设备向终端设备发送第三配置信息，相应的，终端设备接收该第三配置信息。该第三配置信息可用于配置第一TAG与第一CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系，和/或，第三配置信息可用于配置第二TAG与第二CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系。
示例性的，参见图3，图3所示的MAC CE可以显式指示TAG与CoresetPoolIndex之间的关联关系。图3中，CoresetPool ID字段用于指示CoresetPoolIndex的取值，TAG ID字段用于指示某TAG。若图3中CoresetPool ID字段的取值为0，则表示取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex与图3中TAG ID字段所指示的TAG具有关联关系。图3中，服务小区标识可以为第一小区的标识(如第一小区的PCI)，部分带宽(Bandwidth Part，BWP)标识用于指示分配的带宽。T i为传输配置指示(Transmission Configuration Indicator，TCI)状态(State)的标识。T i的取值为1或0，用于表示具有T i的TCI状态的激活或去激活状态。图3中，Oct表示字节，Oct后的字符表示字节的索引，一个字节占8个比特，图3中栅格表示比特位，R表示保留字段。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，第一TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信 息或者第三配置信息中的第一个TAG，第二TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第二个TAG。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，第一TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第二个TAG，第二TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第一个TAG。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，第一TAG是ID最小的TAG，第二TAG是ID最大的TAG。示例性的，第一TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最小的TAG；第二TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最大的TAG。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，在本申请实施中，第一TAG是ID最大的TAG，第二TAG是ID最小的TAG。示例性的，第一TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最大的TAG；第二TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最小的TAG。
在一种实现方式中，前述第二TA可以由第一TA确定。具体的，第二TA可以由第一TA，以及第二TA相对于第一TA的偏移量(offset-1)确定。示例性的，第二TA值＝第一TA值+(offset-1)。需要说明的是，第二TA由第一TA确定，以及第二TA由第一TA以及第二TA相对于第一TA的偏移量(offset-1)确定均用于举例，在其他实现方式中，第一TA可由第二TA确定，第一TA可以由第二TA，以及第一TA相对于第二TA的偏移量(offset2)确定。示例性的，第一TA值＝第二TA值+(offset-2)。
可选的，前述偏移量(如offset1、offset2)可由协议预定义，或者，可以由网络设备指示。示例性的，网络设备向终端设备发送偏移量，相应的，终端设备接收该偏移量，进一步的，根据该偏移量以及第一TA，确定第二TA。可选的，偏移量可携带于RRC、MAC CE或下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information，DCI)中。偏移量可包括于第一配置信息中，也可以不包括于第一配置信息中。偏移量可与第一配置信息包括于同一消息中。
图2对应实施例可包括如下2种情况：
情况1：第一小区关联于两个TAG(即第一TAG、第二TAG)，第一TAG与第一CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系，第二TAG与第二CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系。第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA与第一TAG对应的TA相同，第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA与第二TAG对应的TA相同。因此，通过配置TAG对应的TA即可实现CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA的配置。具体如何配置TAG对应的TA可参见图4和图5的示例图，图4和图5以通过MAC CE携带第一配置信息为例。
以第一小区关联两个TAG为例。图4中，网络设备可发送两个MAC CE，两个MAC CE均包含TAG ID字段和TAC字段。其中一个MAC CE用于指示与第一小区关联的其中一个TAG(如第一TAG)对应的TA，即该MAC CE中的TAG ID字段用于指示与第一小区关联的其中一个TAG，该MAC CE中的TAC字段用于指示该TAG ID字段指示的TAG对应的TA的取值。另一个MAC CE用于指示与第一小区关联的另外一个TAG(如第二TAG)对应的TA，即该MAC CE中的TAG ID字段用于指示与第一小区关联的另外一个TAG，该MAC CE中的TAC字段用于指示该TAG ID字段指示的TAG对应的TA的取值。需要说明的是，MAC CE还可以携带其他内容，图4和图5中仅示出TAG ID字段和TAC字段。图5中，网络设备可发送一个MAC CE，该MAC CE包含2个TAG ID字段和2个TAC字 段，该MAC CE与图4中MAC CE的结构不同。图5所示的MAC CE中Oct1包含的内容可理解为与图4中其中一个MAC CE包含的内容相同，Oct2包含的内容可理解为与图4中另外一个MAC CE包含的内容相同。
虽然NR***版本16(Release 16，Rel-16)支持基于多DCI(multiple DCI，M-DCI)的多TRP(multiple TRP，M-TRP)传输，但是该多TRP属于同一小区。由于当前协议中，一个小区配置关联一个TAG，一个TAG配置一个TA，因此当前协议不支持对于不同的TRP分别配置TA，TRP与CoresetPoolIndex相关联，因此当前协议也不支持对于不同CoresetPoolIndex分别配置对应的TA。但是在本申请实施例的情况1下，可以为第一小区配置多个TAG，一个TAG对于一个TA，从而可以为属于关联于第一小区的不同CoresetPoolIndex分别配置TA，即可以实现每个CoresetPoolIndex每个TA(per CoresetPoolIndex per TA)。
情况2：第一小区关联于一个TAG(如第一TAG)，第一TAG与第一CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系；第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA与第一TAG对应的TA(如第一TA)相同，因此，通过配置第一TAG对应的TA即可实现第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA的配置。对于第二CoresetPoolIndex的第二TA，可以由第一TA(即第一小区关联的TAG对应的TA)确定，或者可以由TAC指示。对于情况2，前述第二配置信息可用于配置与第一小区关联的第一TAG，前述第一配置信息可包括但不限于如下至少一项：第一TAG的标识信息(第一TAG ID)、用于指示第一TA的TAC、用于指示第二TA的TAC。具体如何配置CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA可参见图6的示例图，图6以通过MAC CE携带第一配置信息为例。图6中，网络设备可发送一个MAC CE，该MAC CE包含1个TAG ID字段、2个TAC字段和保留字段R。Oct1和Oct2中均包括一个TAC字段，其中，Oct1中的TAC字段指示的TA值为该MAC CE中TAG ID字段指示的TAG对应的TA值，该TAG ID字段可以用于指示与第一小区关联的TAG。需要说明的是，图6中Oct1指示的TA值适用于(与第一小区关联的)TAG所关联的CoresetPoolIndex(如第一CoresetPoolIndex)，Oct2指示的TA值适用于其他CoresetPoolIndex(例如除第一CoresetPoolIndex以外的CoresetPoolIndex，即第二CoresetPoolIndex)。通过这种方式，即使第一小区关联于一个TAG，也可以为关联于第一小区的不同CoresetPoolIndex分别配置TA，即可以实现每个CoresetPoolIndex每个TA(per CoresetPoolIndex per TA)。
对于情况2，在一种实现方式中，第一小区关联的TAG，可默认关联于第一CoresetPoolIndex或第二CoresetPoolIndex。在另一种实现方式中，网络设备可配置(与第一小区关联的)TAG关联于哪个CoresetPoolIndex。
S203、终端设备根据该第一配置信息获得第一TA和/或第二TA。
终端设备接收到第一配置信息后，若该第一配置信息用于配置第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA，那么终端设备可根据该第一配置信息获得第一TA。若该第一配置信息用于配置第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA，那么终端设备可根据该第一配置信息获得第二TA。若该第一配置信息用于配置第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA和第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA，那么终端设备可根据该第一配置信息获得第一TA和第二TA。
通过实施本申请实施例，可以针对各个CoresetPoolIndex进行TA配置，也就可以针对各个TRP进行TA配置，从而有利于确保网络设备侧的时间同步。具体的，对于情况1，可以为第一小区配置多个TAG，一个TAG对于一个TA，从而可以为关联于第一小区的不同CoresetPoolIndex分别配置TA。对于情况2，即使第一小区关联于一个TAG，也可以为关联于第一小区的不同CoresetPoolIndex分别配置TA。情况1和情况2下均可以实现per CoresetPoolIndex per TA。
请参见图7，为本申请实施例提供的另一种配置方法的流程示意图，图7对应实施例中第一配置信息用于配置TRP的TA。如图7所示，该配置方法可以包括但不限于如下步骤：
S701、网络设备确定第一配置信息；第一配置信息用于配置第一TRP的第一TA和/或第二TRP的第二TA，第一TRP和第二TRP均属于第一小区。
其中，第一配置信息可以包括第一配置信息1和/或第一配置信息2，第一配置信息1用于配置第一TRP的第一TA，第一配置信息2用于配置第二TRP的第二TA。
其中，第一TRP的第一TA的含义为：对于处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备，在该终端设备向网络设备第一TRP发送关联于第一TRP的上行信道或者上行信号的情况下，可由该第一TA获得上行传输的TA值。同理，第二TRP的第二TA的含义为：对于处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备，在该终端设备向网络设备第二TRP发送关联于第二TRP的上行信道或者上行信号的情况下，可由该第二TA获得上行传输的TA值。
在一种实现方式中，第一配置信息具体可用于配置第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA和/或第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA。示例性的，前述第一配置信息1具体用于配置第一CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA，前述第一配置信息2用于配置第二CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA。其中，第一CoresetPoolIndex与第一TRP具有关联关系，第二CoresetPoolIndex与第二TRP具有关联关系。示例性的，取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex与第一TRP具有关联关系，取值为1的CoresetPoolIndex与第二TRP具有关联关系。换言之，配置TRP的TA具体可通过如下实施方式实现：配置CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA，以实现与该CoresetPoolIndex具有关联关系的TRP的TA的配置，关于如何配置CoresetPoolIndex对应的TA可参见图2对应实施例中的具体描述。示例性的，第一配置信息具体用于配置取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex对应的第一TA，和/或，具体用于配置取值为1的CoresetPoolIndex对应的第二TA。
S702、网络设备发送该第一配置信息。相应的，终端设备接收该第一配置信息，该终端设备处于该第一小区的覆盖范围内。
网络设备向终端设备发送第一配置信息。示例性的，网络设备可以在第一小区中广播该第一配置信息。相应的，处于第一小区的覆盖范围内的终端设备可接收到该第一配置信息。可选的，第一小区可以为该终端设备的服务小区。
前述第一配置信息1和第一配置信息2可以携带在相同的消息中也可以携带在不同的消息中。在第一配置信息1携带在消息1中，且第一配置信息2携带在消息2中的情况下，本申请实施例对网络设备发送消息1和消息2的顺序不做限定。例如，网络设备可以先发送消息1，或者，也可以先发送消息2，或者，也可以同时发送消息1和消息2。可选的， 该第一配置信息可以携带于媒体接入控制-控制单元(Medium Access Control-Control Element，MAC-CE)信令中。
在一种实现方式中，第一小区可关联于一个TAG(如第一TAG)，第一TAG对应的TA为第一TA。此时，网络设备可通过下发配置信息以配置与第一小区关联的第一TAG。示例性的，网络设备发送第二配置信息，相应的，终端设备接收该第二配置信息，该第二配置信息用于配置与第一小区关联的第一TAG，具体的，该第二配置信息可包括第一TAG的标识信息(TAG ID)。其中，第一TAG与第一TRP具有关联关系。可选的，第一小区还可关联于第二TAG，第二TAG对应的TA为第二TA。此时，第一小区关联于两个TAG，前述第二配置信息还可用于配置与第一小区关联的第二TAG。其中，第二TAG与第二TRP具有关联关系。可选的，该第二配置信息可携带于无线资源控制(Radio Resource Control，RRC)中。
在本申请实施例中，TAG与TRP之间的关联关系可由协议预定义，或者，可以由网络设备指示。示例性的，网络设备向终端设备发送第三配置信息，相应的，终端设备接收该第三配置信息。该第三配置信息可用于配置第一TAG与第一TRP具有关联关系，和/或，第三配置信息可用于配置第二TAG与第二TRP具有关联关系。示例性的，请参见图3，图3所示的MAC CE可以显式指示TAG与CoresetPoolIndex之间的关联关系，由于CoresetPoolIndex与TRP具有关联关系，因此，该MAC CE可以隐式指示TAG与TRP之间的关联关系。若图3中CoresetPool ID字段的取值为0，则表示取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex与图3中TAG ID字段所指示的TAG具有关联关系。若该取值为0的CoresetPoolIndex与第一TRP具有关联关系，那么表示图3中TAG ID字段所指示的TAG与该第一TRP具有关联关系。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，第一TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第一个TAG，第二TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第二个TAG。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，第一TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第二个TAG，第二TAG是网络配置或者第一配置信息或者第二配置信息或者第三配置信息中的第一个TAG。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，第一TAG是ID最小的TAG，第二TAG是ID最大的TAG。示例性的，第一TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最小的TAG；第二TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最大的TAG。
可选地，在本申请实施例中，在本申请实施中，第一TAG是ID最大的TAG，第二TAG是ID最小的TAG。示例性的，第一TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最大的TAG；第二TAG是第一小区关联的TAG中ID最小的TAG。
在一种实现方式中，前述第二TA可以由第一TA确定。具体的，第二TA可以由第一TA，以及第二TA相对于第一TA的偏移量(offset-1)确定。示例性的，第二TA值＝第一TA值+(offset-1)。需要说明的是，第二TA由第一TA确定，以及第二TA由第一TA以及第二TA相对于第一TA的偏移量(offset-1)确定均用于举例，在其他实现方式中，第一TA可由第二TA确定，第一TA可以由第二TA，以及第一TA相对于第二TA的偏移量(offset2) 确定。示例性的，第一TA值＝第二TA值+(offset-2)。
可选的，前述偏移量(如offset1、offset2)可由协议预定义，或者，可以由网络设备指示。示例性的，网络设备发送偏移量，相应的，终端设备接收该偏移量，进一步的，根据该偏移量以及第一TA，确定第二TA。可选的，偏移量可携带于RRC、MAC CE或下行控制信息(Downlink Control Information，DCI)中。偏移量可包括于第一配置信息中，也可以不包括于第一配置信息中。偏移量可与第一配置信息包括于同一消息中。
图7对应实施例可包括如下2种情况：
情况3：第一小区关联于两个TAG(即第一TAG、第二TAG)，第一TAG与第一小区中的第一TRP具有关联关系，第二TAG与第一小区中的第二TRP具有关联关系。第一TRP的TA与第一TAG对应的TA相同，第二TRP的TA与第二TAG对应的TA相同。因此，通过配置TAG对应的TA即可实现TRP的TA的配置。具体如何配置TAG对应的TA可参见图2对应实施例中对图4和图5的具体描述。
虽然NR***版本16(Release 16，Rel-16)支持基于多DCI(multiple DCI，M-DCI)的多TRP(multiple TRP，M-TRP)传输，但是该多TRP属于同一小区。由于当前协议中，一个小区配置关联一个TAG，一个TAG配置一个TA，因此当前协议不支持对于不同的TRP分别配置TA。但是在本申请实施例的情况3下，可以为第一小区配置多个TAG，一个TAG对于一个TA，从而可以为属于第一小区的不同TRP分别配置TA，即可以实现每个TRP每个TA(per TRP per TA)。
情况4：第一小区关联于一个TAG(如第一TAG)，第一TAG与第一小区中的第一TRP具有关联关系；第一TRP的TA与第一TAG对应的TA(如第一TA)相同，因此，通过配置第一TAG对应的TA即可实现第一TRP的TA的配置。对于第一小区中的第二TRP的TA，可以由第一TRP的TA确定，或者可以由TAC指示。对于情况4，前述第二配置信息可用于配置与第一小区关联的第一TAG，前述第一配置信息可包括但不限于如下至少一项：第一TAG的标识信息(第一TAG ID)、用于指示第一TA的TAC、用于指示第二TA的TAC。具体如何配置TRP的TA可参见图6的示例图，图6以通过MAC CE携带第一配置信息为例。图6中，网络设备可发送一个MAC CE，该MAC CE包含1个TAG ID字段、2个TAC字段和保留字段R。Oct1和Oct2中均包括一个TAC字段，其中，Oct1中的TAC字段指示的TA值为该MAC CE中TAG ID字段指示的TAG对应的TA值，该TAG ID字段可以用于指示与第一小区关联的TAG。
需要说明的是，图6中Oct1指示的TA值适用于(与第一小区关联的)TAG所关联的TRP(如第一TRP)，Oct2指示的TA值适用于第一小区中的其他TRP(例如除第一TRP以外的TRP，即第二TRP)。通过这种方式，即使第一小区关联于一个TAG，也可以为属于第一小区的不同TRP分别配置TA，即可以实现每个TRP每个TA(per TRP per TA)。
对于情况4，在一种实现方式中，第一小区关联的TAG，可默认关联于第一TRP或第二TRP。在另一种实现方式中，网络设备可配置(与第一小区关联的)TAG关联于第一小区中的哪个TRP。
S703、终端设备根据该第一配置信息获得第一TA和/或第二TA。
终端设备接收到第一配置信息后，若该第一配置信息用于配置第一TRP的第一TA， 那么终端设备可根据该第一配置信息获得第一TA。若该第一配置信息用于配置第二TRP的第二TA，那么终端设备可根据该第一配置信息获得第二TA。若该第一配置信息用于配置第一TRP的第一TA和第二TRP的第二TA，那么终端设备可根据该第一配置信息获得第一TA和第二TA。
通过实施本申请实施例，可以针对第一小区中的一个或多个TRP进行TA配置，从而有利于确保网络设备侧的时间同步。具体的，对于情况1，可以为第一小区配置多个TAG，一个TAG对于一个TA，从而可以为属于第一小区的不同TRP分别配置TA。对于情况2，即使第一小区关联于一个TAG，也可以为属于第一小区的不同TRP分别配置TA。情况1和情况2下均可以实现per TRP per TA。
