1. A method of a base station comprising:
transmitting, to a user equipment, a first downlink control signal including first resource allocation information in a case where a resource block set of one or more contiguously allocated resource blocks is allocated to the user equipment, the first resource allocation information indicating the resource block set of one or more contiguously allocated resource blocks;
transmitting, to the user equipment, a second downlink control signal including second resource allocation information in a case where a plurality of resource block sets are allocated to the user equipment, the second resource allocation information indicating the plurality of resource block sets, each one of the plurality of resource block sets including consecutive resource blocks;
receiving, from the user equipment, first uplink data using the resource block set of one or more contiguously allocated resource blocks in a case where the first downlink control signal is transmitted; and
receiving, from the user equipment, second uplink data using the plurality of resource block sets in a case where the second downlink control signal is transmitted,
wherein a first allocation unit of the resource block set of one or more contiguously allocated resource blocks is smaller than a second allocation unit of each one of the plurality of resource block sets.
