1. A method for monitoring a control channel in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the wireless device, configuration information to configure an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) set from a base station, the configuration information including a resource assignment indicating at least one physical resource block-pair and scrambling initialization information indicating a scrambling initialization value,wherein the configuration information further includes an identifier of the EPDCCH set;
monitoring, by a wireless device, a downlink control channel in the EPDCCH set;
generating, by the wireless device, a scrambling sequence; and
descrambling, by the wireless device, a bit stream for downlink control information on the downlink control channel with the scrambling sequence,wherein the generation of the scrambling sequence is initialized with Cinit=(floor(ns/2))29+ni, where ns denotes a slot number within a radio frame, floor (x) denotes a largest integer not greater than x, and ni denotes the scrambling initialization value assigned for the EPDCCH set.

Abstract
A method for monitoring a control channel in a wireless communication system and a wireless device using the same are provided. The wireless device monitors a downlink control channel in at least one physical resource block (PRB) pair of a subframe that is assigned for an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) set. A beatstream for downlink control information of the downlink control channel is scrambled by a scrambling sequence that is initialized on the basis of a scrambling initialization value allocated to the EPDCCH set.
