Claim 6:
7. A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
identify a search space configuration for paging,
identify synchronization signal (SS)/physical broadcast channel (PBCH) block (SSB) and control resource set (CORESET) multiplexing pattern,
determine a number of paging frames (PFs) in a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle from a set determined based on the search space configuration for paging or based on the search space configuration for paging and the SSB and the CORESET multiplexing pattern,
transmit, to a terminal, information on paging search space and information on the number of PFs, wherein the information on paging search space indicates the search space configuration for paging,
identify at least one PF based on the number of PFs, and
transmit, to the terminal, a paging message on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for paging in paging occasions of the at least one PF.
