1. A communication method, wherein the method is applied to a terminal device and comprises:
determining a first paging hyperframe (PH) based on a first extended discontinuous reception (eDRX) cycle, wherein the first PH comprises a first paging time window (PTW);
determining a second PH based on a second eDRX cycle, wherein the second PH comprises a second PTW; and
monitoring a paging occasion (PO) in the first PTW and the second PTW, wherein, based on the first PH and the second PH being a same PH, a start position of the first PTW in the first PH is determined based on the first eDRX cycle and an offset.
