Abstract

Wireless communication method where a wireless network transmits a control channel message to a terminal. At the wireless network side: configuring a plurality of search spaces, each of the plurality are configured from a plurality of control channel elements within a sub-frame by using a pseudorandom function; determining one or more control channel elements to use for transmission of the control channel message from the plurality of search spaces; and transmitting the control channel message. At the terminal side: decoding the control channel message by making a selection of locations for blind decoding the search space within the sub-frame, using the pseudorandom function. The pseudo-random function is a function based on a sum of a first value and a second value. The first value is a pseudo-random factor, and the second value is based on an aggregation level and a total of control channel elements in the sub-frame.
