Abstract
A communication apparatus has a receiver and a decoder. The receiver receives a control signal including first downlink control information and second downlink control information and receives decoding area information that indicates whether the extended Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) should be decoded for each of a plurality of terminal apparatuses. The decoder decodes each of a plurality of first mapping candidates in the PDCCH area or decodes each of the plurality of first mapping candidates in the PDCCH area and each of the plurality of second mapping candidates in the extended PDCCH. A number of the second mapping candidates included in the user-specific search space equals to or is more than a number of the first mapping candidates included in the common search space.

11. The communication method according to claim 9, wherein
the CCE aggregation levels defined in the common search space are four and eight; and when the CCE aggregation levels is four, the number of mapping candidates is four; and when the CCE aggregation levels is eight, the number of mapping candidates is two.
12. The communication method according to claim 9, wherein a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) is mapped as a reference signal to the extended PDCCH.
13. The communication method according to claim 9, wherein a common reference signal (CRS) is mapped in the common search space as a reference signal and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) is mapped in the user-specific search space as the reference signal.
14. The communication method according to claim 9, wherein the decoding includes decoding each of the plurality of first mapping candidates and the plurality of second mapping candidates, for each of a plurality of DCI formats.
15. The communication method according to claim 9, wherein a temporary cell-radio network temporary identifier (C-RNTI) is applied to the PDCCH region.
16. The communication method according to claim 9, wherein the decoding is performed by decoding each of the plurality of first mapping candidates and each of the plurality of second mapping candidates by using a terminal ID of the communication apparatus.
