Disclosed are a channel reciprocity-based precoding matrix configuration method and apparatus. The method includes: in downlink transmission, a network side separately sends, on each antenna port associated with each transmission layer, a CSI-RS subjected to beamforming to a terminal by using beams calculated according to angle information and delay information determined on the basis of uplink channel state information, and determines a precoding matrix for downlink transmission of the terminal according to beams sent on K0 antenna ports selected by the terminal on the basis of the CSI-RS, and a beam combination coefficient set.
