Method and apparatus for performing paging

A mobility management entity (MME) for performing paging in a wireless communication system, the MME comprising:

• a memory;
• a transceiver;
• and
• a processor to connect the memory and the transceiver,
• wherein the processor is configured to:
• control the transceiver to receive an nB from a base station (BS);
• compute a paging frame (PF) on the basis of the nB;
• and
• control the transceiver to transmit a paging message to the BS on the basis of a paging hyperframe (PH) and the computed PF,
• the PH indicates a number of a hyper system frame via which the paging message is transmitted, and
• the PF indicates a number of a system frame via which the paging message is transmitted.
