A user device for transmitting and/or receiving data to/from a base station in a communication system where synchronization blocks and paging are beam-swept and quasi-co-located, comprising: circuitry which, in operation, calculates a starting location of a paging region comprising resources in which user devices are paged, the paging region including paging information for paging said user device; characterized in that the circuitry , in operation, determines an offset with respect to the starting location of the paging region, the offset indicating the location of the paging information for paging said user device relative to the starting location of the paging region, the circuitry , in operation, further receives, from the base station , an indication of the offset with respect to the starting location of the paging region; and determines the offset to obtain the location of the paging information for paging said user device based on the information received from the base station , the indication of the offset is a paging bitmap indicative of locations of paging information within the paging region including the paging information for paging said user device , and the circuitry , in operation, further receives, from the base station , a synchronization bitmap indicative of a plurality of locations in which synchronization blocks are transmitted among a set of candidate locations for transmitting synchronization blocks; and determines, from the plurality of locations indicated by the synchronization bitmap, the ordinal value of the location of a synchronization block most suitable for synchronization of said user device , the ordinal value of the synchronization block most suitable for synchronization of said user device corresponding to an ordinal value of the location of the paging information for paging said user device as indicated by the paging bitmap. circuitry which, in operation, calculates a starting location of a paging region comprising resources in which user devices are paged, the paging region including paging information for paging said user device; characterized in that the circuitry , in operation, determines an offset with respect to the starting location of the paging region, the offset indicating the location of the paging information for paging said user device relative to the starting location of the paging region, the circuitry , in operation, further receives, from the base station , an indication of the offset with respect to the starting location of the paging region; and determines the offset to obtain the location of the paging information for paging said user device based on the information received from the base station , the indication of the offset is a paging bitmap indicative of locations of paging information within the paging region including the paging information for paging said user device , and the circuitry , in operation, further receives, from the base station , a synchronization bitmap indicative of a plurality of locations in which synchronization blocks are transmitted among a set of candidate locations for transmitting synchronization blocks; and determines, from the plurality of locations indicated by the synchronization bitmap, the ordinal value of the location of a synchronization block most suitable for synchronization of said user device , the ordinal value of the synchronization block most suitable for synchronization of said user device corresponding to an ordinal value of the location of the paging information for paging said user device as indicated by the paging bitmap. <EOS>
