Abstract

One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for determining a radio resource by a terminal. According to the method, information on a second cell can be received from a first cell, wherein a radio resource of the first cell includes a plurality of wireless frames along a time axis, each wireless frame includes a plurality of subframes, and the information on the second cell can include an ID of the second cell. In addition, a radio resource of the second cell can be determined by using the information on the second cell, wherein the radio resource of the second cell can be determined as a partial region in the wireless frames or the subframes of the first cell, which is indicated by the information on the second cell.
