Abstract:
1. In a base station, a method for informing a user equipment of control message configuration in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: generating a plurality of control messages for at least one user equipment, wherein the plurality of control messages are grouped into one or more control information groups based on a coding rate applied to each control message; generating an index indicating a combination in a table for indicating a number of control messages included in each of the control information groups; and transmitting the plurality of control messages and the index, wherein the table which includes a plurality of combinations of control information groups each of which has an index assigned thereto is generated as follows: generating possible combinations of control information groups for 0≦N≦M, wherein each of the possible combinations configures control information of which total size is equal to N, where N is a total number of minimum assignment units for the control information and M is a maximum number of minimum assignment units for control information transmission; and reducing a total number of combinations to be included in the table by assigning a single index to a combination representing a set of combinations to which one or more combinations belong.
