1. A base station comprising:
circuitry which, in operation, sets a control-resource set (CORESET) in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) comprising a control channel element (CCE); and
a transmitter which, in operation, transmits a downlink control signal in the CORESET,
wherein the CCE is formed of 6 resource-element groups (REGs) in the CORESET, the 6 REGs being bundled into REG bundles, and
a REG bundle size of the REG bundles is different according to a number of symbols of the CORESET.
