1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
determining, by a terminal device, a second parameter based on a first parameter, wherein the second parameter indicates a distance between the terminal device and an edge of a non-terrestrial network (NTN) cell;
determining, by the terminal device based on the second parameter, whether to trigger a neighboring cell measurement; and
performing, by terminal device, the neighboring cell measurement in the NTN cell based on the first parameter, wherein the first parameter is associated with one or more of following information:
a distance between the terminal device and a network device in the NTN cell;
a height of a network device in the NTN cell from ground;
an azimuth angle of an antenna of a network device in the NTN cell;
a sub-zone in the NTN cell, or
a distance between an edge of the NTN cell and the network device.
