Abstract
The present invention discloses a method for transmitting and receiving a paging message and an associated apparatus used for resolving the issue of an NB-IoT system in which only a main carrier, and not a secondary carrier, can transmit paging messages, resulting in a limited overall paging capacity for the system and inadequate services provided to NB-IoT terminals when there is a large number of such terminals. The method comprises: a terminal receiving system information transmitted from a base station, wherein the system information carries information of a carrier permitted to receive a paging message; the terminal determining, according to information of the carrier permitted to receive the paging message and a predetermined rule, a paging carrier, which is a main carrier or a secondary carrier of the base station; and the terminal receiving a paging message transmitted from the base station and carrier in the paging carrier.
