1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
monitoring, by the terminal having at least two subscriber identity module (SIM) capabilities and being in a radio resource control (RRC) IDLE state or an RRC INACTIVE state, a system information (SI) update indication in at least one of paging occasions of at least one modification period for a first network associated with a first SIM, wherein the paging occasions include a first paging occasion not related to an identifier (ID) of the terminal;
identifying that the terminal fails to monitor the at least one of paging occasions because of monitoring for a second network associated with a second SIM;
upon resuming monitoring of the first network, reading master information block (MIB) and system information block 1 (SIB1) to determine whether any SI is updated or not;
determining whether any SI is updated or not based on the MIB and the SIB1; and
in case that any SI is updated, acquiring the updated SI.
 
5. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor operatively coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
monitor, by the terminal having at least two subscriber identity module (SIM) capabilities and being in a radio resource control (RRC) IDLE state or an RRC INACTIVE state, a system information (SI) update indication in at least one of paging occasions of at least one modification period for a first network associated with a first SIM, wherein the paging occasions include a first paging occasion not related to an identifier (ID) of the terminal,
identify that the at least one processor fails to monitor the at least one of paging occasions because of monitoring for a second network associated with a second SIM,
upon resuming monitoring of the first network, read master information block (MIB) and system information block 1 (SIB1) to determine whether any SI is updated or not,
determine whether any SI is updated or not based on the MIB and the SIB1, and
in case that any SI is updated, acquire the updated SI.
