Abstract

To appropriately perform communication even when transmission timings and/or transmission durations of a data channel and/or uplink control information are flexibly controlled, one aspect of a user terminal according to the present invention includes a transmission section that transmits uplink control information; and a control section that controls the transmission of the uplink control information that uses an uplink shared channel, and at least one of a transmission timing and/or a transmission duration of the uplink shared channel, and a transmission timing and/or a transmission duration of the uplink control information are able to be configured differently per transmission, and, when the uplink control information is transmitted by using the uplink shared channel, the control section controls the transmission of the uplink shared channel and the uplink control information assuming that the transmission timings and/or the transmission durations of the uplink shared channel and the uplink control information are aligned.

Claims (21)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling an uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

a transmitter that, when PUSCH transmission indicated by the first DCI at least partially overlaps with uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) indicated by the second DCI and even if the PUCCH transmission partially does not overlap with the PUSCH transmission, does not perform the PUCCH transmission and transmits the UCI using the PUSCH,

wherein a starting symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located prior to a starting symbol of the PUSCH transmission and a last symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located after a last symbol of the PUSCH transmission.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the UCI includes transmission acknowledgement information (HARQ-ACK) corresponding to the PDSCH.

3. A base station comprising:

a transmitter that transmits first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling an uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

a receiver that, when PUSCH transmission indicated by the first DCI at least partially overlaps with uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) indicated by the second DCI and even if the PUCCH transmission partially does not overlap with the PUSCH transmission, does not perform PUCCH reception and receives the UCI using the PUSCH,

wherein a starting symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located prior to a starting symbol of the PUSCH transmission and a last symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located after a last symbol of the PUSCH transmission.

4. A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:

receiving first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling an uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

when PUSCH transmission indicated by the first DCI at least partially overlaps with uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) indicated by the second DCI and even if the PUCCH transmission partially does not overlap with the PUSCH transmission, not performing the PUCCH transmission and transmitting the UCI using the PUSCH,

wherein a starting symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located prior to a starting symbol of the PUSCH transmission and a last symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located after a last symbol of the PUSCH transmission.

5. A system comprising a base station and a terminal, wherein

the base station comprises:

a first transmitter that transmits first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling an uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

a first receiver that, when PUSCH transmission indicated by the first DCI at least partially overlaps with uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) indicated by the second DCI and even if the PUCCH transmission partially does not overlap with the PUSCH transmission, does not perform PUCCH reception and receives the UCI using the PUSCH; and

the terminal comprises:

a second receiver that receives the first DCI for scheduling the PUSCH and the second DCI for scheduling the PDSCH; and

a second transmitter that, when the PUSCH transmission indicated by the first DCI at least partially overlaps with the PUCCH transmission for transmitting the UCI indicated by the second DCI and even if the PUCCH transmission partially does not overlap with the PUSCH transmission, does not perform the PUCCH transmission and transmits the UCI using the PUSCH,

wherein a starting symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located prior to a starting symbol of the PUSCH transmission and a last symbol of the PUCCH transmission is located after a last symbol of the PUSCH transmission.
