## Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, specifically to a method comprising the steps of: configuring a PCell of a licensed band and an SCell of an unlicensed band for a base station; receiving resource configuration information concerning the SCell by means of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) of the PCell; configuring a subframe set within a temporary time duration on the SCell on the basis of the resource configuration information; and communicating with the base station by means of the subframe set temporarily configured on the SCell, and to an apparatus for the method.

## Claims
