Claim:
1. A method of an evolved node B (eNB) in a wireless environment, the method comprising: transmitting, to a machine type communication (MTC) user equipment (UE), a first message for indicating a first frequency band dedicated for the MTC UE; establishing a radio resource control (RRC) connection with the MTC UE in response to receiving via the first frequency band from the MTC UE a second message for accessing to the eNB, mapping first data bits for the MTC UE to first resource blocks (RBs) within the first frequency band and second data bits for a non-MTC UE to second RBs within a second frequency band comprising the first frequency band; and if at least one of the second RBs is within the first RBs, remapping at least one of second data bits corresponding to the at least one of the second RBs to other RBs within a third frequency band other than the first frequency band within the second frequency band.
