1. A mobile station, comprising:

  • wireless communication circuitry, configured to perform wireless communication with at least a base station; and

    processing hardware coupled to the wireless communication circuitry, wherein the processing hardware is configured to operate with the wireless communication circuitry to;

    receive, from a base station, control information in resource blocks (RBs) of a physical downlink shared channel region on a first component carrier among a plurality of component carriers, wherein the plurality of component carriers comprises the first component carrier and a second component carrier, wherein the physical downlink shared channel region is located within orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols following a physical downlink control channel region in a subframe, wherein the second component carrier is different than the first component carrier, wherein the control information indicates a resource assignment for the mobile station on the second component carrier, and wherein the second carrier is identified in the control information of the first component carrier by a component carrier number; and

    communicate with the base station using the control information of the first component carrier and the resource assignment on the second component carrier.
