PROCESSING EPDCCH INFORMATION INCLUDING DIFFERENTIATING BETWEEN SETS OF PRB PAIRS

摘要

Methods of operating a network node (1 100) are provided. Various embodiments may provide methods of processing enhanced phystca! downlink conirol channel, ePDCCH, information by a network node (M OO) of a radio telecommunications system. The methods may include differentiating (300) between sets of physical resource block, PRB, pairs in an ePDCCH control region when defining blind decoding candidates (Xs). Moreover, the methods may include scheduling (301) a resource for a User Equipment, UE, in response to differentiating (300) between the sets of PRB pairs. Related network nodes (1100) and UEs (1200) are also described.
