Claim Text:
1. A method of transmitting control information for a relay node (RN) from an eNode B in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: transmitting, by the eNode B to the RN, a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) start orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol index for the RN; transmitting, by the eNode B to the RN, virtual resource blocks (VRBs) allocation information related to a detection of a relay-physical downlink control channel (R-PDCCH) for the RN; transmitting, by the eNode B to the RN, the R-PDCCH through at least one physical resource block (PRB) of PRBs corresponding to the VRBs, the R-PDCCH including downlink resource allocation information for the RN; and transmitting, by the eNode B to the RN, the PDSCH in accordance with the PDSCH start OFDM symbol index and the downlink resource information for the RN.
