The invention discloses an acquisition indicator detection method and a mobile terminal, and belongs to the technical field of channel indicator detection. The method comprises the following steps: S1, de-signing an AI signal to output a first de-signing value; S2, judging whether the first de-signing value is smaller than a first threshold value, and going to S6 if the first de-signing value is smaller than the first threshold value; S3, de-signing an EAI signal to output a second de-signing value; S4, judging whether the sum of the second de-signing value and the corresponding first de-signing value is smaller than a second threshold value, and going to S6 if the sum is smaller than the second threshold value; S5, calculating channel resources needing to be configured according to the EAI signal, and exiting; and S6, judging that AI signal indicates discontinuous reception, and exiting. The technical scheme has the beneficial effect that the interference of AI reconstruction signals to detection is reduced, the detection efficiency is improved, and the misjudgment rate is reduced.
