Original Abstract Submitted
the disclosure relates to fifth generation (5g) or sixth generation (6g) communication systems to support higher data rates. specifically, the disclosure provides a method for extended discontinuous reception (edrx). in accordance with an aspect of the disclosure, a method performed by a user equipment (ue) in a wireless communication system includes: identifying, for a radio resource control (rrc) inactive state, a first extended discontinuous reception (edrx) cycle associated with a core network (cn) entity and a second edrx cycle associated with a radio access network (ran) node; and monitoring a paging occasion in the rrc inactive state according to a drx cycle, wherein, in case that the first edrx cycle is longer than 1024 radio frames and the second edrx cycle is longer than 1024 radio frames: during an overlapped period of a first paging time window associated with the cn entity and a second paging time window associated with the ran node, the drx cycle is determined by a shortest value among a first ue specific value configured by an upper layer, a second ue specific value configured by an rrc, and a default drx value broadcasted in system information; during a period included in the first paging time window associated with the cn entity and being outside of the second paging time window associated with the ran node, the drx cycle is determined by a shortest value among the first ue specific value configured by the upper layer and the default drx value broadcasted in the system information; and during a period included in the second paging time window associated with the ran node and being outside of the first paging time window associated with the cn entity, the drx cycle is determined by the second ue specific value configured by the rrc.
