Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine technique des communications et concerne un procédé et un appareil d'activation de terminal. Selon le procédé, un terminal entre dans un état actif dans une première cellule de fréquence accédée par le terminal ; lorsque le terminal est dans l'état actif dans la première cellule de fréquence, si le terminal reçoit, dans la première cellule de fréquence, un PDCCH utilisé pour planifier des données, c'est-à-dire, s'il y a transmission de données, le terminal entre dans l'état actif dans une seconde cellule de fréquence accédée, et s'il n'y a pas de transmission de données, le terminal n'entre pas dans l'état actif dans la seconde cellule de fréquence. Le temps de surveillance de PDCCH sur la seconde cellule de fréquence peut ainsi être réduit et la consommation d'énergie du terminal peut être réduite. La première fréquence est inférieure à la seconde fréquence.
