TRANSCEIVING METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISCONTINUOUS RECEPTION SIGNALING

Provided are a transceiving method and apparatus for a DRX command, relating to the field of 5G multicast technologies. The method includes the following steps. A receiving end receives a DRX command. The DRX command is scheduled by a physical downlink control channel addressed by a group-radio network temporary identifier. The receiving end uses a DRX cycle corresponding to the group-radio network temporary identifier for a multicast session corresponding to the group-radio network temporary identifier. With the technical solution of the present application, the receiving end is enabled to use the DRX cycle corresponding to the group-radio network temporary identifier for the multicast session corresponding to the group-radio network temporary identifier so that the power consumption of the receiving end can be reduced. Moreover, the manner in which the DRX command is scheduled by a physical downlink control channel addressed by a group-radio network temporary identifier can also avoid the resource waste caused by sending multiple DRX commands to multiple receiving ends by the sending end, thereby avoiding the resource consumption of a communication system and improving the processing performance of the communication system.
