Abstract
Provided are a method and apparatus for monitoring a PDCCH, and a base station and a user equipment. On a base station side, the method comprises: configuring an association relationship between a notification signal or signaling and a PDCCH; and sending the notification signal or signaling associated with the PDCCH to a user equipment to notify the user equipment to start monitoring the PDCCH. On a user equipment side, the method comprises: receiving a notification signal or signaling which is associated with a PDCCH and sent by a base station; and starting to monitor the PDCCH according to the notification signal or signaling associated with the PDCCH. By means of the present invention, the signaling overhead and the power consumption of a user equipment can be reduced.
