Abstract

Un procédé de détermination d'un délai de commutation et un appareil, qui peuvent être appliqués au domaine technique des communications, sont divulgués dans des modes de réalisation de la présente invention. Le procédé exécuté par un dispositif côté réseau consiste à : en réponse à la détermination selon laquelle un état d'indicateur de configuration de transmission (état TCI) doit être commuté vers un premier état TCI cible et un second état TCI cible, déterminer un délai de commutation en fonction du premier état TCI cible et du second état TCI cible. Par conséquent, un délai de commutation pour commuter un état TCI vers deux états TCI peut être déterminé.
