1. A communication method, comprising:
receiving, by a terminal device, first signaling, wherein the first signaling is used to configure K1 channel state information-reference signal CSI-RS resources; and
reporting, by the terminal device, channel state information CSI, wherein the CSI comprises a channel quality indicator CQI of a first codeword, a channel measurement part used to calculate the CQI of the first codeword is determined based on channel measurement results of K2 CSI-RS resources, and the K2 CSI-RS resources are resources in the K1 CSI-RS resources, wherein
both K1 and K2 are positive integers, K1 is greater than 1, and K2 is greater than 1 and less than or equal to K1;
wherein the COI of the first codeword is determined conditionally based on a precoding matrix indicator PMI, and a quantity of rows of a precoding matrix indicated by the PMI is equal to a sum of all or some port quantities of the K2 CSI-RS resources; and
wherein the CSI is determined based on a channel measurement result of a kth CSI-RS resource in the K2 CSI-RS resources, a kth first parameter and a reference precoding matrix.
