Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for transceiving a downlink control channel. According to one embodiment of the present invention, method in which a base station transmits downlink control information in a wireless communication system comprises: a step for determining an allocatable resource region for an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) of a local allocation system; a step for allocating an E-PDCCH to the determined allocatable resource region for the E-PDCCH; and a step for transmitting the downlink control information on the allocated E-PDCCH. The allocatable resource region for the E-PDCCH can be set as a group of partial resource regions in each of a plurality of partitions when a downlink system bandwidth contains said plurality of partitions.
