Abstract
This application provides a paging method and apparatus. The method includes: A first device receives a first paging message, where the first paging message includes a first list, and the first list includes an area identifier of at least one cell. The first device determines a first cell, where an area identifier of the first cell at a first moment is different from an area identifier of the first cell at a second moment, the first moment is a current moment, and the second moment is earlier than the first moment. When the area identifier of the first cell at the first moment does not belong to the first list, the first device stops paging a terminal device in the first cell. According to the foregoing technical solutions, the first device may effectively page the terminal device, to reduce signaling overheads of the first device, and save power.
