A method for a UE to monitor a PDCCH comprises receiving a first configuration from a base station to configure the UE with a first search space of the PDCCH, where the first search space is used for monitoring a scheduling signal used for indicating scheduling information, receiving a second configuration from the base station to configure the UE with a second search space of the PDCCH, wherein the second search space is used for monitoring a power saving signal used for indicating wake-up information associated with a DRX functionality, monitoring the first search space in response to the UE being in a DRX active time of the DRX functionality, wherein the DRX active time is a time during which the UE monitors the PDCCH, and not monitoring the second search space in response to the UE being in the DRX active time of the DRX functionality.
