Claim 0:
1. A method for selecting a cell to be camped on, the method comprising:
obtaining an initial cell list through initial receive beam sweeping;
obtaining a candidate cell list based on a barred cell list of a terminal and the initial cell list;
determining that a second cell of a first plurality of cells is in the candidate cell list by determining that the second cell is in the initial cell list and the barred cell list and does not meet a barring condition;
selecting the first plurality of cells waiting to be camped on from a second plurality of cells in the candidate cell list;
attempting to decode a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) of all cells sequentially of the first plurality of cells;
after attempting to decode the PBCH of all cells sequentially of the first plurality of cells, obtaining the second cell whose PBCH is successfully decoded;
selecting the second cell to be remaining minimum system information (RMSI) decoded;
decoding RMSI of the second cell to obtain an RMSI decoding result; and
selecting the second cell as a cell to be camped on in response to the RMSI decoding result indicating that the second cell meets a camping criterion.
