Abstract

In the present invention, disclosed are a method for transreceiving downlink control information in a wireless access system supporting an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH), and an apparatus for same. More particularly, the method comprises the steps of: transmitting through a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) information with respect to a resource region of a search space that is set inside a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) or the enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH); and transmitting the downlink control information to a user equipment through the search space.

Claims (11)

1. A method for receiving downlink control information (DCI) in a radio access system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), information about a first resource region for an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) via a physical broadcast channel (PBCH);

calculating a second resource region using a function of the first resource region and a cell ID, wherein the second resource region is used as a search space of the E-PDCCH and is different from the first resource region; and

receiving the DCI from the BS via the search space allocated in the second resource region.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the information about the first resource region indicates one or more E-PDCCH regions among the plurality of E-PDCCH regions in a subframe.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein any one of modulation and coding scheme (MCS) information and code rate information for transmitting the DCI is transmitted via the PBCH.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a response message to a physical random access channel (PRACH) is transmitted via the search space.

5. A user equipment (UE) for receiving downlink control information (DCI) in a radio access system, the UE comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit configured to transmit and receive an RF signal; and

a processor configured to receive, from a base station (BS), information about a first resource region for an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) region via a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), to calculate a second resource region using a function of the first resource region and a cell ID and to receive the DCI from the BS via the search space allocated in the second resource region,

wherein the second resource region is used as a search space of the E-PDCCH and is different from the first resource region.
