1. An apparatus, comprisingobserving means configured to observe a first parameter;
- deciding means configured to decide, based on the first parameter, whether or not an original search space of a downlink control channel of an orthogonal frequency division multiplex technology is to be redefined; and
redefining means configured to redefine the original search space, thus obtaining a redefined search space.

Abstract
It is provided an apparatus, including observing means configured to observe a first parameter; deciding means configured to decide, based on the first parameter, whether or not an original search space of a downlink control channel of an orthogonal frequency division multiplex technology is to be redefined; and redefining means configured to redefine the original search space, thus obtaining a redefined search space.

11. An apparatus, comprising
monitoring means configured to monitor a first parameter comprising an information if an original search space of a downlink control channel of an orthogonal frequency division multiplex technology is redefined; -
checking means configured to check whether or not the first parameter indicates the original search space is redefined; and searching means configured to search an entry at a search entry of the redefined search space. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A method, comprising
observing a first parameter; -
deciding, based on the first parameter, whether or not an original search space of a downlink control channel of an orthogonal frequency division multiplex technology is to be redefined; and redefining the original search space, thus obtaining a redefined search space, if it is decided that the original search space is to be redefined. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 39)

30. A method, comprising
monitoring a first parameter comprising an information if an original search space of a downlink control channel of an orthogonal frequency division multiplex technology is redefined; -
checking whether or not the first parameter indicates that the original search space is redefined; searching an entry at a search entry of the redefined search space if the checking means checks that the original search space is redefined. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
