The present specification, relates to a method for switching Internet of Things (IoT) modes in a wireless communication system and a device therefor.
According to the present specification, the method whereby a terminal switches IoT modes in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: transmitting, in a radio resource control (RRC) connected state, an operation mode switching request for requesting switching from a source IoT mode, which is the current operation mode of the terminal, to a base station via a predetermined physical channel; receiving, from the base station, an operation mode switching response to the operation mode switching request; and switching from the source IoT mode to a predetermined target IoT mode on the basis of the operation mode switching response.
