A communication method of MTC devices in the field of communication technologies, including: grouping, by a network side, first MTC devices according to time when the first MTC devices access a network, where the grouping is so performed that MTC devices accessing the network at same time are grouped into different groups, and MTC devices accessing the network at different time are grouped into a same group; and sending, after the first MTC devices access the network, group information to the first MTC devices, so that the first MTC devices receive and/or send data according to the group information. Embodiments of the present invention further provide a related communication apparatus of MTC devices. Embodiments of the present invention realize scattering time for MTC devices to access a network for sending data, thereby avoiding collisions and effectively easing the burden resulted from MTC devices accessing the network concurrently.
