Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving time division duplex frame configuration information in wireless communication system

A base station comprising:

• a transceiver;
• and
• a controller configured to:
• identify a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for uplink-downlink configuration information,
• obtain downlink control information (DCI) including the uplink-downlink configuration information associated with an uplink timing and a downlink timing,
• attach a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) sequence scrambled with the RNTI to the DCI, and
• transmit, via the transceiver, the DCI to which the CRC sequence is attached on a control channel.

A method performed by a terminal, the method comprising:

• identifying, by the terminal, a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) for uplink-downlink configuration information;
• receiving, by the terminal, downlink control information (DCI) to which a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) sequence scrambled with the RNTI is attached, the DCI including the uplink-downlink configuration information associated with an uplink timing and a downlink timing;
• and
• identifying, by the terminal, the uplink-downlink configuration information based on the DCI.
