1. An integrated circuit for controlling a user equipment (UE) for transmitting and/or receiving data to/from a base station in a communication system, the integrate circuit comprising:
control circuitry which, in operation, calculates a starting location of a paging region, the paging region comprising resources in which user equipments (UEs) are paged and including paging information for paging the UE; and
receiving circuitry which, in operation, receives, from the base station, an indication of an offset with respect to the starting location of the paging region;
wherein the control circuitry, in operation, determines, based on the indication, the offset with respect to the starting location of the paging region to obtain a location of the paging information for paging the UE, the offset indicating the location of the paging information for paging the UE relative to the starting location of the paging region, and the offset indicating a frequency position in a paging location indication indicative of locations of the paging information within the paging region, and
determines an ordinal value of a location of a synchronization signal block (SSB) in a synchronization bitmap.
