Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for receiving a downlink control signal in a TDD-based wireless communication system and to an apparatus therefor. The method comprises receiving a downlink signal via a downlink interval in a specific frame including the downlink interval a guard interval and an uplink interval. A combination of the downlink interval the guard interval and the uplink interval is given using configuration information on the specific subframe. When the configuration information is given such that the length of the downlink interval is larger than a specific value detecting a first type of PDCCH is performed in the specific subframe. When the configuration information is given such that the length of the downlink interval is equal to or smaller than the specific value detecting the first type of PDCCH is skipped in the specific subframe.

Claim
1. A method for receiving a signal by a user equipment in a wireless communication system using Time Division Duplex (TDD), the method comprising:
determining a subframe configuration for a specific subframe comprising a downlink period, a guard period, and an uplink period, each length of the downlink period, the guard period, and the uplink period being given according to the subframe configuration; and
