1. A method, comprising:

  • determining, by a user equipment (UE), according to a resource set for transmitting an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) in a wireless network, a plurality of parameters for generating a plurality of initial values of demodulation pilot sequences, wherein the resource set is partitioned into a first resource set and a second resource set based on physical resource block (PRB), and the plurality of parameters comprise a first parameter and a second parameter, wherein the first parameter comprises a scrambling code identity (ID) and an initial ID of a first demodulation pilot sequence, and the second parameter comprises a scrambling code ID and an initial ID of a second demodulation pilot sequence;

    generating, by the UE, an initial value of the first demodulation pilot sequence on the first resource set comprising at least one preconfigured PRB on a system bandwidth according to the first parameter, wherein the at least one preconfigured PRB comprises a physical resource element set configured to the UE;

    generating, by the UE, an initial value of the second demodulation pilot sequence on the second resource set comprising at least one PRB on the system bandwidth except the at least one preconfigured PRB according to the second parameter;

    obtaining, by the UE, the first demodulation pilot sequence based on the initial value of the first demodulation pilot sequence, and the second demodulation pilot sequence based on the initial value of the second demodulation pilot sequence; and

    demodulating, by the UE, the E-PDCCH transmitted on the first resource set based on the first demodulation pilot sequence, and demodulating the E-PDCCH transmitted on the second resource set based on the second demodulation pilot sequence.
