Abstract
The disclosure relates to a 5generation (5G) or 6generation (6G) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A communication method and an electronic equipment are provided. The method includes receiving configuration information of periodical physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring, wherein within each cycle of the configuration comprises a first time window and/or a second time window, and according to the configuration information, performing PDCCH monitoring on type 3 common search space (CSS) and UE-specific search space (USS) in the first time window, and/or, skipping PDCCH monitoring on type 3 CSS and USS in the second time window. By the embodiments of the disclosure, the user equipment (UE) periodically performs PDCCH monitoring and/or skips PDCCH monitoring to achieve the objective of power-saving, and it is avoided that UE cannot timely receive scheduling information to thereby cause data transmission delay.
