Abstract
A cell using an allocated frequency band, a non-allocated frequency band, or a shared frequency band is controlled efficiently. A higher layer processing unit configured to configure a first configuration for monitoring an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control CHannel (EPDCCH) and a second configuration for measuring a Discovery Signal (DS); a reception processing unit configured to monitor a candidate of the EPDCCH, based on the first configuration; and a detection unit configured to detect the DS in a prescribed subframe to be determined, based on the second configuration are provided. In a case that simultaneous transmissions on the EPDCCH and the DS occur in a Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) cell, the EPDCCH is mapped onto a resource element different from a resource element corresponding to the DS in the prescribed subframe.
