Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided in which a user equipment (UE) receives a system information block (SIB) from a network. The UE identifies at least one downlink (DL) period based on a first uplink (UL)/DL configuration included in the SIB. The UE monitors a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) during the at least one DL period using a discontinuous reception (DRX) operation. The UE obtains downlink control information (DCI) for indicating at least one second UL/DL configuration as a format for one or more time intervals from the monitored PDCCH. The UE determines the format for the one or more time intervals based on the obtained DCI. The monitoring of the PDCCH includes monitoring the PDCCH in an active time of a DRX cycle. The active time includes a time when the UE performs continuous reception.
