    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for the transmission of physical downlink control signaling. In one method, a User Equipment (UE) receives information associated with a physical resource block (PRB) for enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) from a base station. Based on either first information received on physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH) or second information received on higher layer signaling, the UE determines a starting orthogonal frequency division multiple (OFDM) symbol on which EPDCCH transmission starts. The UE receives control information on the EPDDCH based on the information associated with the PRB and the determined starting OFDM symbol.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for wireless communications. Configuration information including a resource start offset is received. Downlink control information (DCI) is received on an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) using at least one of control channel elements (CCEs). The DCI includes a resource offset for a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback. A resource of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) is determined based on a first CCE of the CCEs, the resource offset in the DCI, and the resource start offset in the configuration information. A HARQ-ACK signal is transmitted on the PUCCH using the determined resource to a base station.

    Abstract: A method apparatus and system for efficiently transmitting and receiving channels are provided in a wireless communication system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). A multiplexing scheme differs according to a channel when a transmitter transmits a packet data channel, a common control channel and a control channel designated for a particular user. Uncoded 1-bit information is broadly dispersed in frequency and time domains using multiplexing technology for maximizing diversity gain in a channel for transmitting information of at least one bit to a particular user like an acknowledgement (ACK) channel. The transmitter converts a sequence obtained by multiplexing multiple bits to be transmitted to a plurality of users to parallel signals, and broadly disperses the parallel signals in the time and frequency domains. When the uncoded 1-bit information is transmitted, reception reliability is improved because channel coding and transmission are efficiently performed using a small amount of resources.
