Repeater device and method for receiving control information from the base station

PURPOSE: A relay node apparatus and a method for receiving control information from a base station are provided to efficiently receive control information using an R-PDCCH(Relay-Physical Downlink Control Channel) assigned location, a starting point, an end point, and multiplex type information. CONSTITUTION: A receiver(290) receives information about an area in which an R-PDCCH is assigned from a base station(205) for a repeater(210). A processor(280) searches one or more R-PDCCH based on the received R-PDCCH assignment information. The receiver receives one or more R-PDCCH from a fourth symbol of a first slot in a downlink backhaul subframe.
