1. A method for monitoring a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), comprising:
sending, by a network device, a first message to a terminal device; wherein when the first message indicates not to monitor a PDCCH within a first time length, the first message is used for the terminal device not to perform monitoring the PDCCH within the first time length; and when the first message indicates to monitor the PDCCH within the first time length, the first message is used for the terminal device to monitor the PDCCH within the first time length,
wherein the first message is Downlink Control Information, DCI, used for uplink and downlink scheduling,
wherein before sending, by the network device, the first message to the terminal device, the method further comprises:
sending, by the network device, second configuration information, wherein the second configuration information is used for indicating the first time length,
wherein the first message comprises a first bit;
when the first bit is 0, the first message indicates to monitor the PDCCH within the first time length, and when the first bit is 1, the first message indicates not to monitor the PDCCH within the first time length.
