Abstract
The present invention is designed to provide a radio base station apparatus, a mobile terminal apparatus, a radio communication system and a radio communication method which can cope with an increased number of users. A radio base station apparatus is provided with: a signal generating section that generates a first downlink control signal and a second downlink control signal for a mobile terminal apparatus; a first multiplexing section that multiplexes the first downlink control signal on a control region up to a predetermined number of symbols from the top of a subframe; a second multiplexing section that frequency-division-multiplexes the second downlink control signal on radio resources from the next symbol in the control region to the last symbol of the subframe; and a transmission section that transmits the first downlink control signal multiplexed on the control region and the second downlink control signal multiplexed on the radio resources.
