Abstract

The invention aims to perform UL transmission in an appropriate manner even when using short transmission time intervals (TTIs). A user terminal includes a transmission section that performs the UL transmission using at least one of a plurality of TTIs contained in one subframe of existing systems, and a control section that controls allocation of an UL signal and/or an UL channel. The TTI is constituted of an even number of symbols of the existing system. The control section allocates an uplink control channel on the basis of the TTI.

Claims (9)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives a downlink (DL) signal in a first time unit of a plurality of time units included in a subframe;

a transmitter that transmits acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information for the DL signal using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a second time unit of a plurality of time units included in a subframe after a period in units of a subframe; and

a processor that when the second time unit has an even number of symbols, applies frequency hopping to the PUCCH in the second time unit, the frequency hopping being performed between a first half of the second time unit and a second half of the second time unit.

2. A radio communication method for a terminal, the radio communication method comprising:

receiving a downlink (DL) signal in a time unit of a plurality of time units included in a subframe;

transmitting acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information for the DL signal using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a second time unit of a plurality of time units included in a subframe after a period in units of a subframe; and

applying frequency hopping to the PUCCH in the second time unit, when the second time unit has an even number of symbols, the frequency hopping being performed between a first half of the second time unit and a second half of the second time unit.

3. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the second time unit is a slot.
