Provided are a control channel sending method and apparatus, and receiving method and apparatus. The sending method comprises: a first device acquiring resource information about a first type of sending resources of a control channel; the first device determining a second type of sending resources of the control channel according to the resource information about the first type of sending resources, wherein the second type of sending resources are sending resources different from the first type of sending resources; and the first device sending, on the first type of sending resources and the second type of sending resources, the control channel to a second device. The invention solves the technical problem in the related art that the transmission efficiency of a control channel is relatively low due to the fact that a terminal applies a blind detection method to the control channel.
