Method and device for receiving downlink signal

A communication apparatus for receiving downlink control information in a wireless communication system, the communication apparatus comprising:

• a Radio Frequency (RF) unit;
• and
• a microprocessor configured to
• receive a subframe including a first slot and a second slot,
• detect a downlink grant including resource allocation bits in the first slot of a resource unit, each bit of the resource allocation bits corresponding to a respective resource unit,
• blind decode a uplink grant in the second slot of the resource unit, if a bit of the resource allocation bits corresponding to the resource unit is set to ‘0’, and
• omit blind decoding for the uplink grant in the second slot of the resource unit, if the bit of the resource allocation bits corresponding to the resource unit is set to ‘1’.

A method for transmitting downlink control information in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

• assigning a downlink grant including resource allocation bits in a first slot of a resource unit, each bit of the resource allocation bits corresponding to a respective resource unit;
• and
• transmitting a subframe including the first slot and a second slot,
• wherein the second slot of the resource unit is used as being a potential resource for assignment of a uplink grant, if a bit of the resource allocation bits corresponding to the resource unit is set to ‘0’, and
• wherein the second slot of the resource unit is not used for assignment of the uplink grant, if a bit of the resource allocation bits corresponding to the resource unit is set to ‘1’.
