Paging method, device, and system

An apparatus comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable storage memory, configured to store a computer program;
• and
• at least one processor, configured to execute the computer program stored in the memory, to enable a terminal to:
• receive an unscheduled uplink data sending resource or a shared uplink data sending resource from an access network device by broadcast signaling, wherein the uplink data sending resource is a resource shared by a plurality of UEs, and
• after receiving the unscheduled or shared uplink data sending resource, receive paging information from the access network device;
• select an uplink data sending resource from the unscheduled or shared uplink data sending resource according to an air interface quality;
• and
• send paging response information to the access network device by using the selected uplink data sending resource.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer programs which, when executed by one or more processors, cause a terminal to:

• receive an unscheduled uplink data sending resource or a shared uplink data sending resource from an access network device by broadcast signaling, wherein the uplink data sending resource is a resource shared by a plurality of UEs, and
• after receiving the unscheduled or shared uplink data sending resource, receive paging information from the access network device;
• select an uplink data sending resource from the unscheduled or shared uplink data sending resource according to an air interface quality;
• and
• send paging response information to the access network device by using the selected uplink data sending resource.
