1. A method of relaxing frequency measurement by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, system information including first configuration information on frequency measurement and second configuration information on relaxed frequency measurement, the second configuration information including information on a not at cell edge criterion; and
determining whether to perform frequency measurement based on the not at cell edge criterion,
wherein the first configuration information includes SIntraSearchP for a cell selection receive level value (Srxlev) for an intra-frequency, SIntraSearchQ for a cell selection quality value (Squal) for the intra-frequency, SnonIntraSearchP for the Srxlev for an inter-frequency or an inter-radio access technology (inter-RAT) frequency, and SnonIntraSearchQ for the Squal for the inter-frequency or the inter-RAT frequency, and
wherein the information on the not at cell edge criterion includes SSearchThresholdP for the Srxlev for relaxed frequency measurement which is less than or equal to both the SIntraSearchP and the SnonIntraSearchP, and SSearchThresholdQ for the Squal for relaxed frequency measurement which is less than or equal to both the SIntraSearchQ and the SnonIntraSearchQ.
