The method includes transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), an indication of a type of enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCI1) transmis N4 sion, where the type of ePDCX:- transmission comprises either localized transmissions or distributed trsniission, and transmitting, to the UE, an indication of the number of physical resource block (PRB) pairs allocated for the ePDCCII transmission, where the in dication of the number of PRB pairs allocated for the ePDCCH transmission is conveyed in 2 or 3 bits. Other methods, apparatuses, and systems also arc disclosed,
