Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour recevoir et envoyer des informations de commande de liaison descendante (DCI), qui peuvent s'appliquer à un scénario d'émission et de réception à coordination multi-point (CoMP) et qui peuvent réduire la complexité de la détection aveugle des DCI par un équipement terminal. Le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à : recevoir des premières informations de configuration et des secondes informations de configuration, lesdites premières et secondes informations de configuration étant utilisées pour déterminer la taille de la charge utile d'un premier format de DCI et la taille de la charge utile d'un second format de DCI, respectivement, les premières et les secondes informations de configuration étant envoyées par différents points de transmission ; au moyen d'un remplissage par des zéros ou d'une troncature dans le premier format de DCI et/ou d'un remplissage par des zéros ou d'une troncature dans le second format de DCI, aligner la taille de la charge utile du premier format de DCI et la taille de la charge utile du second format de DCI, ce qui réduit le nombre de formats de DCI ayant différentes tailles de charge utile et réduit ainsi la complexité de la détection aveugle des DCI par un dispositif terminal.
