2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs and the adjacent satellite beam footprint have a same physical cell identity.

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the measurement information further comprises frequency domain resource information of the adjacent satellite beam footprint.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the frequency domain resource information comprises one or more of a component carrier and a bandwidth part.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs and the adjacent satellite beam footprint have different physical cell identities.

6 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the measurement information comprises at least one of a physical cell identity of a cell to which the adjacent satellite beam footprint belongs, or a satellite identity.

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs and the adjacent satellite beam footprint are in a coverage area of a same satellite.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein a frequency domain resource used by the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs is the same as a frequency domain resource used by the adjacent satellite beam footprint.

9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein a component carrier used by the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs is the same as a component carrier used by the adjacent satellite beam footprint, a bandwidth part used by the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs is different from a bandwidth part used by the adjacent satellite beam footprint; and
the measurement information comprises bandwidth part information, and comprises at least one of a physical cell identity or a satellite identity.

10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs and the adjacent satellite beam footprint are in coverage areas of different satellites.

11 . The method according to claim 10 , wherein the measurement information further comprises at least one of bandwidth part information, a physical cell identity or a satellite identity.

12 . The method according to claim 10 , wherein a component carrier used by the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs is different from a component carrier used by the adjacent satellite beam footprint; and
the measurement information comprises at least one of component carrier information, a physical cell identity or a satellite identity.

13 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein a frequency domain resource used by the satellite beam footprint to which the terminal currently belongs is different from a frequency domain resource used by the adjacent satellite beam footprint.
