1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
receiving, by a terminal, a first message from a network device, wherein the first message comprises an indication of a preconfigured terminal-specific dedicated resource for a transmission from the terminal to the network device, the indication indicating a dedicated search space corresponding to the preconfigured terminal-specific dedicated resource, wherein the dedicated search space comprises a monitoring window duration, and wherein the dedicated search space is associated with a start monitoring time that is accurate to a subframe boundary;
performing, by the terminal while being in an idle mode in which the terminal has no established Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection with the network device, the transmission to the network device using the preconfigured terminal-specific dedicated resources;
monitoring, by the terminal, the dedicated search space in a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) according to the indication; and
receiving, by the terminal over the PDCCH, a second message from the network device comprising a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI).
