Abstract

Provided is a method and an apparatus for transmitting uplink control information by a terminal in wireless communication system. When a PUCCH resource used for transmitting only periodic CSI from a subframe, the resource is a first resource, and a resource indicated by ARI is a second resource, when a setting allows transmitting together ACK/NACK and the periodic CSI through a PUCCH from the same subframe, the first resource and the second resource are mutually exclusive, and the second resource that is used for transmitting together the ACK/NACK and the periodic CSI uses the resource indicated by the ARI from resources determined by an RRC.

Claims (33)

1. A method of receiving uplink control information (UCI) by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a first higher layer message informing the UE of a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource;

transmitting, to the UE, a second higher layer message informing the UE of a set of PUCCH resources; and

receiving at least one of ACK/NACK information and channel state information (CSI) on the first PUCCH resource or on a second PUCCH resource from the set of PUCCH resources,

wherein based on the UE having only the CSI among the ACK/NACK information and the CSI, the CSI is received on the first PUCCH resource, and

wherein based on the UE i) having both the ACK/NACK information and the CSI and ii) having received a field informing the UE of the second PUCCH resource from the set of PUCCH resources through downlink control information (DCI), the ACK/NACK information and the CSI are received on the second PUCCH resource.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first higher layer message is included in a radio resource control (RRC) message.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second higher layer message is included in a radio resource control (RRC) message.

5. A base station (BS) for receiving uplink control information (UCI), the BS comprising:

a transceiver for transmitting or receiving a radio signal; and

a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver,

wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a first higher layer message informing the UE of a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource;

transmit, to the UE, a second higher layer message informing the UE of a set of PUCCH resources; and

receive at least one of ACK/NACK information and channel state information (CSI) on the first PUCCH resource or on a second PUCCH resource from the set of PUCCH resources,

wherein based on the UE having only the CSI among the ACK/NACK information and the CSI, the CSI is received on the first PUCCH resource, and

wherein based on the UE i) having both the ACK/NACK information and the CSI and ii) having received a field informing the UE of the second PUCCH resource from the set of PUCCH resources through downlink control information (DCI), the ACK/NACK information and the CSI are received on the second PUCCH resource.

6. The BS of claim 5 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

7. The BS of claim 5 , wherein the first higher layer message is included in a radio resource control (RRC) message.

8. The BS of claim 5 , wherein the second higher layer message is included in a radio resource control (RRC) message.

9. An apparatus in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a processor; and

a memory coupled to the processor,

wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a first higher layer message informing the UE of a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource;

transmit, to the UE, a second higher layer message informing the UE of a set of PUCCH resources; and

receive at least one of ACK/NACK information and channel state information (CSI) on the first PUCCH resource or on a second PUCCH resource from the set of PUCCH resources,

wherein based on the UE having only the CSI among the ACK/NACK information and the CSI, the CSI is received on the first PUCCH resource, and

wherein based on the UE i) having both the ACK/NACK information and the CSI and ii) having received a field informing the UE of the second PUCCH resource from the set of PUCCH resources through downlink control information (DCI), the ACK/NACK information and the CSI are received on the second PUCCH resource.

10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the DCI is transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).

11. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the first higher layer message is included in a radio resource control (RRC) message.

12. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the second higher layer message is included in a radio resource control (RRC) message.
