1. A method, comprising:
receiving, at a user equipment (UE), a radio resource control (RRC) message, wherein the RRC message indicates a first number of control channel candidates for a first aggregation level for an anchor carrier and a second number of control channel candidates for the first aggregation level for a non-anchor carrier, wherein the first number of control channel candidates is different from the second number of control channel candidates; and
based on the received RRC message, determining a control channel search space including one or more control channel candidates for each of the anchor carrier and the non-anchor carrier.
