Abstract
An antenna switching method and a communication device are provided. The method includes transmitting, by a communication device, configuration information. The configuration message indicates M sounding reference signal (SRS) resource set groups, each SRS resource set group contains at least one SRS resource set, and M is 1, 2 or 3, and a resourceType field corresponding to at least one SRS resource set in one SRS resource set group is configured to be a same value. Each SRS resource set group corresponds to a corresponding antenna switching configuration that supports a first terminal device to have more than four receiving antennas.
