    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for allocating control channel candidates is provided, which can allocate control channel candidates at different aggregation levels to K ePDCCH sets and reduce complexity of blind detection performed by a UE. The method includes: determining K sets for transmitting a control channel, where each set in the K sets includes at least one physical resource block pair; and allocating control channel candidates at each aggregation level to at least one set in the K sets according to at least one of aggregation levels supported by the control channel to be transmitted, the number of control channel candidates corresponding to each aggregation level, the K sets for transmitting the control channel, and types of the sets.

    Abstract: In a system and method of control channel transmission in the communications field, REs, except those used for transmitting a DMRS, are grouped in each physical resource block pair of L physical resource block pairs. The L physical resource block pairs are determined to be used to transmit a control channel into N eREGs. The number of valid REs are calculated except other overheads in each eREG of the N eREGs. Each of the eCCEs are mapped onto M eREGs according to the number of valid REs included in each eREG of the N eREGs of each physical resource block pair. The eCCE is sent in the REs included in the eREG.
