Provided are a radar communication integrated cooperative detection method and apparatus based on beam power distribution. The method comprises: determining a farthest detection distance and a detection volume of a single radar in a radar communication integrated system during transmitting of a detection beam when the radar has a preset transmit power; determining a communication success probability of each pair of radars during transmitting communication beams; determining a detection area volume of each pair of radars under different power distribution coefficients based on the farthest detection distance, the detection volume, a different power distribution coefficient of the single radar, and the communication success probability of each pair of radars; determining a power distribution coefficient corresponding to a largest detection area volume from different detection area volumes as a current power distribution coefficient; and determining total detection volume of the radar communication integrated system based on the detection area volume of each pair of radars and the current power distribution coefficient.
