Abstract

A terminal device includes a transmission unit that transmits HARQ response information to a first serving cell and a second serving cell on a physical uplink shared channel in a subframe. The physical uplink shared channel is transmitted based on a physical downlink control channel or an enhanced physical downlink control channel which is detected in a state of including a downlink control information format 0/4. Two or more serving cells are configured in the terminal device, in a case where frame constitution types of any two configured serving cells are different from each other, and in a case where a primary cell has Frame constitution type 2, B c DL is applied to the first serving cell of Frame constitution type 2 by using a first following expression, and is applied to the second serving cell of Frame constitution type 1 by using a second expression.
