Abstract:
A method and apparatus for allocating resources to a low cost user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system is provided. A base station (BS) allocates at least one sub-bandwidth among a system bandwidth to a low cost UE, and transmits information on the allocated at least one sub-bandwidth to the low cost UE. The at least one sub-bandwidth may include a set of resource physical resource blocks (PRBs) that the low cost UE can access at a given subframe.
