1. A method comprising the steps of:
- receiving, by a receiver, dedicated control information (DCI) destined for the receiver from a base station in a resource block (RB) contained in selected RB candidates selected by the base station, the RB being a unit for data allocation in a combination of time and frequency domains of radio resources, the DCI including modulation and coding information of a data packet transmitted on a shared data channel (SDCH) destined for the receiver from the base station, wherein the RB includes a control region and a data region, and the DCI is located in the data region that follows the control region in a time domain;
monitoring, by the receiver, the selected RB candidates to attempt to decode the DCI destined for the receiver; and
obtaining the data packet corresponding to the successfully decoded DCI.

Abstract
A method of transmitting data packets over a plurality of dynamically allocated resource blocks in at least one or a combination of a time, code or frequency domain on a shared channel of a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of selecting a number of resource block candidates for potential transmission of data packets destined for a receiver and transmitting the data packet to the receiver using at least one allocated resource block from the selected resource block candidates. The invention also relates to a corresponding method of decoding data packets, a transmitter, receiver and communication system.

7. A receiver apparatus comprising:
-
a receiver which, in operation, receives dedicated control information (DCI) destined for the receiver apparatus from a base station in a resource block (RB) contained in selected RB candidates selected by the base station, the RB being a unit for data allocation in a combination of time and frequency domains of radio resources, the DCI including modulation and coding information of a data packet transmitted on a shared data channel (SDCH) destined for the receiver apparatus from the base station, wherein the RB includes a control region and a data region, and the DCI is located in the data region that follows the control region in a time domain; and a processor which, in operation, monitors the selected RB candidates received by the receiver to attempt to decode the DCI destined for the receiver apparatus, and obtains the data packet corresponding to the successfully decoded DCI. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
