PAGING METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM

摘要

Disclosed are a paging method, apparatus, and system, used for solving the problems in the prior art of long time lapse and low paging reception reliability in terminals when using an extended DRX cycle to carry out monitoring. The method in the embodiments of this invention comprises: a terminal performs paging reception in an extended paging location within each extended paging cycle; and within at least one extended paging cycle, the terminal performs paging retransmission reception in at least one specific paging location other than the extended paging location. As the terminal performs paging reception at least twice within at least one extended paging cycle, the embodiments of the present invention may improve terminal power-saving and also ensure the time lapse and reliability of paging reception, thereby achieving the aims of assuring user experience and improving system performance.
