Abstract

A method of receiving a message by a wireless device in a mobile communication system is disclosed. The present invention comprises obtaining information of a first cycle, the first cycle including a monitoring interval and a non-monitoring interval; and monitoring at least one active occasion within the monitoring interval for receiving the message, wherein the message is repeated within the monitoring interval.

Claims (21)

1. A method of receiving a message by a wireless device in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:

obtaining information of a first cycle including a monitoring interval and a non-monitoring interval, information of a second cycle including an active interval and an inactive interval, and information on a maximum repetition number, N max , of active intervals within the monitoring interval, wherein the first cycle includes a plurality of second cycles; and

monitoring at least one active interval within the monitoring interval for receiving the message,

wherein the message is repeated in accordance with the second cycle within the monitoring interval;

wherein the monitoring of at least one active interval within the monitoring interval for receiving the message is repeated up N max times, until a specific identifier is acquired within the monitoring interval, and

wherein the monitoring of at least one active interval is repeated up to N max times within a next monitoring interval, if the specific identifier is not acquired within the monitoring interval.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the monitoring of at least one active interval includes monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for the message.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PDCCH for the message includes an identifier.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the message is received through a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) indicated by the PDCCH for the message.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first cycle is a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wireless device is a machine type communication (MTC) device.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the message is a paging message.

8. A method of transmitting a message in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a wireless device, information of a first cycle including a monitoring interval and a non-monitoring interval, information of a second cycle including an active interval and an inactive interval, and information on a maximum repetition number, N max , of active intervals within the monitoring interval, wherein the first cycle includes a plurality of second cycles; and

transmitting a message to the wireless device via at least one active interval within the monitoring interval,

wherein the message is repeated in accordance with a second cycle within the monitoring interval,

wherein the at least one active interval is monitored repeatedly up to N max times within the monitoring interval for receiving by the wireless device, until a specific identifier is acquired within the monitoring interval, and

wherein the at least one active interval is monitored repeatedly up to N max times within a next monitoring interval, if the specific identifier is not acquired within the monitoring interval.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the first cycle is a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the wireless device is a machine type communication (MTC) device.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the message is a paging message.
