1. A user equipment (UE) capability reporting method comprising:
receiving first capability enquiry request information, second capability enquiry request information, and a multi-RAT request condition, wherein the first capability enquiry request information is used to indicate UE to report a first band combination supported by the UE in a first radio access technology (RAT), and the second capability enquiry request information and the multi-RAT request condition are used to indicate the UE to report a first multi-RAT band combination that is supported by the UE in the first RAT and a second RAT and that meets the multi-RAT request condition;
reporting a first carrier aggregation (CA) band combination in the first band combination based on the first capability enquiry request information and the multi-RAT request condition, wherein a priority of reporting the first CA band combination is higher than a priority of reporting a second CA band combination in the first band combination, the second CA band combination does not meet the multi-RAT request condition, and the first CA band combination meets the multi-RAT request condition; and
reporting a second multi-RAT band combination in the first multi-RAT band combination based on the second capability enquiry request information and the multi-RAT request condition, wherein the second multi-RAT band combination is used to configure the UE to be in a multi-connectivity mode of the first RAT and the second RAT.
