Abstract
The disclosure relates to a 5th generation (5G) communication system or a 6th generation (6G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th generation (4G) communication system, such as long term evolution (LTE). A method of a base station (BS) for sleep mode control is provided. The method includes transmitting scheduled downlink (DL) data to a user equipment (UE), detecting one or more consecutive discontinuous transmissions (DTX) at feedback timing corresponding to the DL data, transmitting downlink control information (DCI) including a wake-up confirming message (WCM) to the UE in response to the detection of the consecutive DTX, and determining that the UE is in wake-up mode based on reception of an acknowledgment (ACK) corresponding to the WCM from the UE.
