1. A method for sidelink communication, comprising:
receiving, by a first terminal device, sidelink control information (SCI) transmitted from a second terminal device;
obtaining, by the first terminal device, information of a sidelink reference signal according to the SCI;
determining, by the first terminal device, resource indication information of the sidelink reference signal according to the SCI, wherein the resource indication information comprises at least one or more of the sidelink reference signal, time domain symbol indication information of the sidelink reference signal, frequency domain start position indication information of the sidelink reference signal, or frequency domain length information of the sidelink reference signal; and
when the resource indication information of the sidelink reference signal comprises the frequency domain start position indication information of the sidelink reference signal and does not comprise the frequency domain length information of the sidelink reference signal, determining the frequency domain length information of the sidelink reference signal based on pre-configured information or information configured by a network device.
