PURPOSE: A method for reducing a battery consumption in a terminal at broadcast service is provided to reduce the battery consumption while the terminal receives broadcast messages, by preparing functions of turn on and off in the terminal and monitoring only typical page slots without monitoring slots for receiving the broadcast messages under a turn-off state of the terminal. CONSTITUTION: If a user sets the terminal not to receive the broadcast messages, only the typical slots can be monitored(100,110). That is, if a setting signal for turning on the broadcast messages is received, a wake-up time of the terminal is calculated in order to broadcast pages and the broadcast messages. If a user sets the terminal to receive the broadcast messages, broadcast slots are monitored separately(100,120). Namely, if a setting signal for turning-off the broadcast messages, the wake-up time thereof is calculated so that the terminal can wake up at typical page slots.
