Abstract
A method and apparatus for adjusting a wake-up period of a terminal in a communications system. In at least one embodiment, the method includes: determining whether a network-side device retransmits a paging message in an area in which the terminal is located; and if a paging message is retransmitted, acquiring a time interval at which the paging message is retransmitted and the number R of times that the paging message is retransmitted, and adjusting the wake-up period of the terminal to a value equal to N times the time interval at which the paging message is retransmitted, wherein N is an integer and 2≦N≦R.
Claims20
A method for adjusting a wake-up period of a terminal in a communications system, comprising:
- determining whether a network-side device retransmits a paging message in an area in which the terminal is located;
- and
- acquiring, in response to determining that the network-side device is retransmitted, a time interval at which the paging message is retransmitted and a number R of times that the paging message is retransmitted, and adjusting a wake-up period of the terminal to a value equal to N times the time interval at which the paging message is retransmitted, wherein N is an integer and 2≦N≦R.
A terminal in a communications system, comprising:
- a receiver;
- at least one processor connected to the receiver;
- a non-transitory computer readable medium connected to the processor and having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- determine whether a network-side device retransmits a paging message in an area in which the terminal is located;
- acquire, in response to determining that a paging message is retransmitted, a time interval at which the paging message is retransmitted and a number R of times that the paging message is retransmitted;
- and
- adjust a wake-up period of the terminal to a value equal to N times the time interval at which the paging message is retransmitted, wherein N is an integer and 2≦N≦R.
