Method for effectively transmitting control signal in wireless communication system

1. A user equipment configured for transmitting a reception acknowledgement in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:

a transceiver configured to receive and transmit radio signals; and

a processor operatively coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

receive one or more downlink packets in a plurality of downlink subframes from a base station;

determine an ACK/NACK condition for the plurality of downlink subframes as favorable or unfavorable; and

instruct the transceiver to transmit an ACK/NACK signal on an uplink channel based on the determined ACK/NACK condition,

wherein a resource used for transmission of the ACK/NACK signal is associated with a resource to receive a downlink packet in a prior downlink subframe of the plurality of downlink subframes.

2. The user equipment in claim 1 , wherein the plurality of downlink subframes are Time Division Duplex (TDD) downlink subframes.

3. The user equipment in claim 1 , wherein the plurality of downlink subframes are Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) downlink subframes.

4. The user equipment in claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of downlink subframes includes the same packet or substantially the same packet.

5. The user equipment in claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

receive a bundling indicator which indicates a number of bundled downlink subframes in the plurality of downlink subframes, and

determine whether at least one bundled downlink subframe is missed by comparing the bundling indicator with the number of detected bundled downlink subframes.

6. The user equipment in claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to generate the ACK/NACK signal when no bundled downlink subframe is missed.

7. The user equipment in claim 6 , wherein each subframe of the bundled downlink subframes is used to transmit one or plural codewords, and

wherein the representative ACK/NACK signal is an ACK signal if all codewords in the bundled downlink subframes are successfully received.

8. A method implemented in a user equipment for transmitting a reception acknowledgement in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving one or more downlink packets in a plurality of downlink subframes from a base station;

determining an ACK/NACK condition for the plurality of downlink subframes as favorable or unfavorable; and

transmitting an ACK/NACK signal on an uplink channel based on the determined ACK/NACK condition,

wherein a resource used for transmission of the ACK/NACK signal is associated with a resource to receive a downlink packet in a prior downlink subframe of the plurality of downlink subframes.

9. The method in claim 8 , wherein the plurality of downlink subframes are Time Division Duplex (TDD) downlink subframes.

10. The method in claim 8 , wherein the plurality of downlink subframes are Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) downlink subframes.

11. The method in claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of downlink subframes includes the same packet or substantially the same packet.

12. The method in claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving a bundling indicator which indicates a number of bundled downlink subframes in the plurality of downlink subframes, and

determining whether at least one bundled downlink subframe is missed by comparing the bundling indicator with the number of detected bundled downlink subframes.

13. The method in claim 12 , further comprising generating the ACK/NACK signal when no bundled downlink subframe is missed.

14. The method in claim 13 , wherein each subframe of the bundled downlink subframes is used to transmit one or plural codewords, and

wherein the representative ACK/NACK signal is an ACK signal if all codewords in the bundled downlink subframes are successfully received.
