Abstract

Methods and apparatus are described for multiplexing a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bit in a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) by a user equipment (UE) in a communication system. A method includes acquiring configuration information on at least one offset for HARQ-ACK; determining a number of coded symbols for at least one HARQ-ACK bit based on one offset from among the at least one offset, wherein the one offset is identified according to a number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit; obtaining the at least one HARQ-ACK bit coded based on the number of coded symbols; and multiplexing the coded at least one HARQ-ACK bit in a PUSCH.

Claims (41)

1. A method for transmitting a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bit in a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) by a user equipment (UE) in a communication system, the method comprising:

acquiring information on at least one offset for HARQ-ACK;

determining a number of coded symbols for at least one HARQ-ACK bit, based on a number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit and one offset of the at least one offset, wherein the one offset is identified according to the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit; and

transmitting the coded symbols for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit in a PUSCH, based on the number of coded symbols for the at least one HARQ-ACK bits.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of consecutive values for the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit are mapped to the one offset.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on the at least one offset for HARQ-ACK is received through a higher layer signaling.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is repeated based on the determined number of coded symbols.

5. A method for receiving a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bit in a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) by a base station in a communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting information on at least one offset for HARQ-ACK;

receiving at least one HARQ-ACK bit on a PUSCH; and

demultiplexing the received at least one HARQ-ACK bit in the PUSCH,

wherein a number of coded symbols for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is determined based on a number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit and one offset of the at least one offset, and

wherein the one offset is identified according to the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein a plurality of consecutive values for the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit are mapped to the one offset.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the information on the at least one offset for HARQ-ACK is transmitted through a higher layer signaling.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is obtained from HARQ-ACK bits repeated based on the number of coded symbols.

9. An apparatus for transmitting a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bit in a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor configured to:

acquire information on at least one offset for HARQ-ACK;

determine a number of coded symbols for at least one HARQ-ACK bit based on a number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit and one offset of the at least one offset, wherein the one offset is identified according to the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit

; and

transmit the coded symbols for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit in a PUSCH, based on the number of coded symbols for the at least one HARO-ACK bits.

10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein a plurality of consecutive values for the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit are mapped to the one offset.

11. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the information on the at least one offset for HARQ-ACK is received through a higher layer signaling.

12. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is repeated based on the determined number of coded symbols.

13. An apparatus for receiving a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bit in a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor configured to:

control the transceiver to transmit information on at least one offset for HARQ-ACK;

control the transceiver to receive at least one HARQ-ACK bit on a PUSCH; and

demultiplex the received at least one HARQ-ACK bit in the PUSCH,

wherein a number of coded symbols for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is determined based on a number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit and one offset of the at least one offset, and

wherein the one offset is identified according to the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit.

14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein a plurality of consecutive values for the number of the at least one HARQ-ACK bit are mapped to the one offset.

15. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the information on the at least one offset for HARQ-ACK is transmitted through a higher layer signaling.

16. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is obtained from HARQ-ACK bits repeated based on the number of coded symbols.

17. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein a decoded HARQ-ACK bit for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is obtained based on the number of coded symbols.

18. The method of claim 1 , wherein a coded HARQ-ACK bit for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is obtained based on the number of coded symbols.

19. The method of claim 5 , wherein a decoded HARQ-ACK bit for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is obtained based on the number of coded symbols.

20. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein a coded HARQ-ACK bit for the at least one HARQ-ACK bit is obtained based on the number of coded symbols.
