The invention provides a reference
signal determination method and related equipment, and the method comprises the steps: determining a first reference
signal based on a first search space set, wherein the first search space set is a search space set for currently carrying out physical downlink
control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, and the first reference
signal comprises a radio link monitoring reference signal RLM-RS or a beam failure monitoring reference signal BFD-RS. According to the method for determining the reference signal provided by the invention, the terminal can determine the RLM-RS or the BFD-RS based on the search space set currently performing PDCCH (Physical Downlink
Control Channel) monitoring, so that the selected
CORESET is more suitable, and the accuracy of the RLM can be improved.
