Abstract:
Provided is a resource allocation method suitable for a downlink control channel of a narrowband MTC UE, and a base station and an MTC UE for executing the method. The method according to embodiments of the present invention includes: allocating one or more MPDCCH-PRB-sets for an MTC UE in order to transmit the MPDCCH, the numbers of PRB-pairs in the MPDCCH-PRB-sets being 2, 4, or 6; and transmitting MPDCCH allocation information to the MTC UE, the MPDCCH allocation information including information indicating the MPDCCH-PRB-sets. The allocated MPDCCH-PRB-sets may be associated with repetition levels.
