1. A communication method, comprising:
receiving downlink control information (DCI), wherein the DCI indicates N demodulation reference signal (DMRS) ports, the N DMRS ports correspond to each of M physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), the N DMRS ports used in at least two of M PDSCH transmission units correspond to different transmission configuration indicator (TCI)-states, N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and M is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and wherein at least one PDSCH transmission unit among the M PDSCH transmission units is determined based on an interval between neighboring PDSCH transmission units, and the interval between the neighboring PDSCH transmission units comprises a symbol length between an ending position of a first PDSCH transmission unit and a starting position of a second PDSCH transmission unit in the neighboring PDSCH transmission units; and
receiving M PDSCHs based on the DCI.
