1. A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a communications device, a discontinuous reception (DRX) period of a first device and an identifier of the first device;
determining, by the communications device according to the DRX period of the first device and the identifier of the first device, a paging occasion of the first device triggering the first device to page a second device on the paging occasion of the first device that is determined, wherein the second device is configured to transmit data to a network side device through the first device, and the communications device is the first device or the second device, the second device being different than the first device; and
participating, by the communications device, in a communication of a first paging message on the paging occasion for paging, by the first device, the second device using the first paging message, wherein participating in the communication of the first paging message comprises;
transmitting, by the communication device being the first device, the first paging message to the second device on the paging occasion of the first device to page the second device on the paging occasion of the first device;
orreceiving, by the communication device being the second device, the first paging message from the first device on the paging occasion of the first device.
