1. A channel monitoring method performed by a base station, comprising:
configuring a specified occurrence of a power-saving signal and a specified effective time range of the specified occurrence for a terminal, the specified occurrence representing a specified effective range of the power-saving signal for subsequent discontinuous reception (DRX);
generating first notification information, the first notification information comprising the specified occurrence and the specified effective time range; and
sending the first notification information to the terminal, so that the terminal acquires the specified occurrence and the specified effective time range from the first notification information, and performs channel monitoring according to the specified occurrence and the specified effective time range;
wherein
the power-saving signal is a wake up signaling (WUS);
the specified occurrence comprises 0, 1, and an integer N greater than 1; and
when the specified occurrence is 0, a WUS monitoring pattern is ignored and only a DRX pattern is used.
