1. A method, comprising:
implementing at a terminal device:
receiving, from a first network device, a first configuration of a first measurement object for a carrier frequency;
receiving, from a second network device, a second configuration of a second measurement object for the carrier frequency;
determining an absolute time difference between a first measurement timing in the first configuration and a second measurement timing in the second configuration; and
in response to determining that the absolute time difference is below a predetermined threshold:
performing a single measurement for the carrier frequency based on the first measurement timing in the first configuration or the second measurement timing in the second configuration,
determining whether a measurement gap is required in response to determining the carrier frequency is one of a serving frequency or non-serving frequency for one of the first network device or the second network device; and
selecting the first measurement timing in the first configuration or the second measurement timing in the second configuration based on the determination as to whether the measurement gap is required.
