Claim Text:
1. A method for receiving control information in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving, by a user equipment (UE), first information related to a position of an Enhanced-Physical Control Format Indication Channel (E-PCFICH) from a base station; receiving, by the UE, the E-PCFICH based on the first information related to the position of the E-PCFICH; obtaining, by the UE, second information related to a frequency band of an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (E-PDCCH) region through the E-PCFICH; and searching, by the UE, the E-PDCCH region for an E-PDCCH based on the second information, wherein the E-PCFICH is received in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol between a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and the E-PDCCH region, wherein the PDCCH is received in first N OFDM symbols of a subframe in a time domain, wherein N is one of natural numbers 1 to 4, wherein the first information related to the position of the E-PCFICH is semi-statically configured, and wherein the second information related to the frequency band of the E-PDCCH region is dynamically changed for each subframe.
