Abstract

The disclosure relates to a pre-5 th -generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4 th -Generation (4G) communication system, such as long term evolution (LTE). A method for operating a terminal in wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a base station, system information including at least one parameter associated a paging operation, and monitoring a paging occasion (PO) that is determined based on the at least one parameter, during a discontinuous reception (DRX) operation.
