Original Abstract Submitted
An antenna panel management method, an apparatus, and a system, implement management of a plurality of antenna panels, and reduce power consumption of a terminal device. In this solution, a terminal device switches a state of a first antenna panel from a first state to a second state. The terminal device includes a plurality of antenna panels. The plurality of antenna panels may support one or more of an activated state, a semi-activated state, or a deactivated state, and the first antenna panel is one or more of the plurality of antenna panels.
