Abstract:
Disclosed are a communication method and device in a wireless communication system, the communication method comprising: a base station in the communication system determines, according to the current system configuration of the communication system, the category of an enhanced control channel element configuration in an enhanced physical downlink control channel, the enhanced control channel element configuration comprising the number of resource elements in each enhanced control channel element, and the number of enhanced control channel elements in each physical resource block pair, and the enhanced control channel element configuration is classified into a plurality of categories respectively corresponding to the different system configurations of the communication system; and notifying a terminal node in the communication system of the information related to the determined category of the enhanced control channel element configuration.

Claim (Index 1):
A communication device, comprising:\n processing circuitry configured to: determine which of a plurality of resource elements are available for enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH) transmission based on whether each of the plurality of resource elements is reserved for transmission of a reference signal; and determine a configuration of an ePDCCH for a specific terminal from a plurality of ePDCCH configurations, based on the determination of which of the plurality of resource elements is available for the ePDCCH transmission, wherein the configuration of the ePDCCH for the specific terminal comprises a number of enhanced control channel elements (eCCEs) mapped to one physical resource block (PRB) pair in a localized way or more than one PRB pair in a distributed way, the configuration of the ePDCCH for the specific terminal includes a configuration of resource elements per eCCE, and includes selecting the configuration of the ePDCCH from a plurality of candidate configurations related to the mapping of the eCCEs based on a predetermined relationship between each ePDCCH configuration and a system configuration, each of the plurality of ePDCCH configurations includes different configurations of the number of eCCEs, and the communication device further comprising transmitting and receiving circuitry configured to communicate with the specific terminal based on the determined configuration of the ePDCCH.
