Claim:
1. A method for receiving an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (EPDCCH) from a base station by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving a first EPDCCH for a first carrier by monitoring first EPDCCH candidates for the first carrier in a specific physical resource block (PRB) pair set; and receiving a second EPDCCH for a second carrier by monitoring second EPDCCH candidates for the second carrier in the specific PRB pair set, wherein an interval between each of the first EPDCCH candidates at a specific aggregation level is determined based on a first value obtained by dividing a number of Enhanced Control Channel Elements (ECCEs) included in a resource block set of a subframe by a number of the second EPDCCH candidates at the specific aggregation level, and wherein a position of the second EPDCCH candidates is determined based on a second value obtained by adding the interval and an offset.
