Abstract

A communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method performed by a terminal comprises: receiving, from a base station, information indicating whether at least one paging message is to be transmitted in at least one paging occasion (PO) among a plurality of POs configured with the UE; identifying that the at least one paging message is to be transmitted in the at least one PO based on the information; and monitoring the at least one PO for receiving the at least one paging message.
