Abstract  Abstract

Embodiments of the present application disclose a method for switching a status of a secondary carrier, a terminal device, and a network device. The method comprises: a terminal device receiving a media access control (MAC) control element (CE) sent by a network device; and the terminal device switching a first secondary carrier of the terminal device from a first state to a second state accordingto the MAC CE, wherein the first state and the second state are two different states of an activated state, a deactivated state, and a dormant state. The method, the terminal device, and the networkdevice in the embodiments of the present application assist in balancing the utilization rate of secondary carriers and the power consumption of a terminal device.
