Abstract

A user equipment for performing effective coding scheme of uplink control information transmission is provided. The user equipment transmits, to a base station apparatus, channel state information for multiple downlink component carriers, the user equipment comprising: a determining unit for determining, the number of coded symbol for the channel state information for multiple downlink component carriers, using the number of bits, which is obtained by concatenating channel state information bits for each downlink component carrier and attaching Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits to the concatenated channel state information bits for each downlink component carrier.

Claims (40)

1. A user equipment configured to communicate with a base station apparatus using a plurality of downlink component carriers, the user equipment comprising:

a receiving unit configured to receive on a physical downlink control channel, from a base station apparatus, downlink control information including information requesting to transmit channel state information; and

a transmitting unit configured to transmit on a physical uplink shared channel, to the base station apparatus, the channel state information in a case that the downlink control information is received, wherein

in a case of the transmission of the channel state information for more than one downlink component carrier, the number of coded symbols for the channel state information is determined based on the number of bits given by attaching Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits to a result of concatenating the channel state information for each downlink component carrier.

2. The user equipment according to claim 1 ,

the number of the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits is given by the number of bits of the result of concatenating the channel state information for each downlink component carrier.

3. The user equipment according to claim 1 ,

the channel state information is a channel quality indicator.

4. The user equipment according to the claim 1 ,

the channel state information is a precoding matrix indicator.

5. The user equipment according to the claim 1 ,

the channel state information is a channel quality indicator and a pr-coding matrix indicator.

6. A base station apparatus configured to communicate with a user equipment using a plurality of downlink component carriers, the base station apparatus comprising:

a transmitting unit configured to transmit on a physical downlink control channel, to a user equipment, downlink control information including information requesting to transmit channel state information; and

a receiving unit configured to receive on a physical uplink shared channel, from the user equipment, the channel state information in a case that the downlink control information is transmitted, wherein

for the channel state information for more than one downlink component carrier, the number of coded symbols for the channel state information is determined based on the number of bits given by attaching Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits to a result of concatenating the channel state information for each downlink component carrier.

7. The base station apparatus according to the claim 6 ,

the number of the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits is given by the number of bits of the result of concatenating the channel state information for each downlink component carrier.

8. The base station apparatus according to the claim 6 ,

the channel state information is a channel quality indicator.

9. The base station apparatus according to the claim 6 ,

the channel state information is a precoding matrix indicator.

10. The base station apparatus according to the claim 6 ,

the channel state information is a channel quality indicator and a precoding matrix indicator.

11. A method of a user equipment configured to communicate with a base station apparatus using a plurality of downlink component carriers, the method comprising:

receiving on a physical downlink control channel, from a base station apparatus, downlink control information including information requesting to transmit channel state information; and

transmitting on a physical uplink shared channel, to the base station apparatus, the channel state information in a case that the downlink control information is received, wherein

in a case of the transmission of the channel state information for more than one downlink component carrier, the number of coded symbols for the channel state information is determined based on the number of bits given by attaching Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits to a result of concatenating the channel state information for each downlink component carrier.

12. A method of a base station apparatus configured to communicate with a user equipment using a plurality of downlink component carriers, the method comprising:

transmitting on a physical do link control channel, to a user equipment, downlink control information including information requesting to transmit channel state information; and

receiving on a physical uplink shared channel, from the user equipment, the channel state information in a case that the downlink control information is transmitted, wherein

for the channel state information for more than one downlink component carrier, the number of coded symbols for the channel state information is determined based on the number of bits given by attaching Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) bits to a result of concatenating the channel state information for each downlink component carrier.

13. The user equipment according to claim 1 , wherein

the channel state information is transmitted on the physical uplink shared channel together with uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) data.

14. The base station apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein

the channel state information is transmitted on the physical uplink shared channel together with uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) data.

15. The communication method according to claim 11 , wherein

the channel state information is transmitted on the physical uplink shared channel together with uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) data.

16. The communication method according to claim 12 , wherein

the channel state information is transmitted on the physical uplink shared channel together with uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) data.
