Abstract

A method for allocating a resource for response information transmission and transmitting according to transmission conditions in a wireless communication system according to the present invention comprises the steps of: setting a specific field value of a control channel depending on the allocation method by determining a transmission method or transmission quantity of data to be transmitted to a user's terminal from a data channel, a method of generating response information of the data according to the transmission quantity or transmission method, and an allocation method for indicating the response information resource; transmitting the data channel including the transmitting data and the control channel to the user's terminal; confirming the response information, which is transmitted from a resource allocated by the allocation method, for the data transmitted from the user's terminal; and determining whether the transmitted data area retransmitted according to the confirmed response information.

transmitting, to the base station, second response information with respect to the second data, wherein the second response information comprises a third acknowledgement bit and a fourth acknowledgement bit,

wherein resource indexes of the third acknowledgement bit and the fourth acknowledgment bit are determined based on the TPC value.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first resource index of the first response information is determined based on an n_CCE value, which is an index of a Control Channel Element (CCE) of the first PDCCH.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first data comprises a first codeword and a second codeword, the first acknowledgment bit of the first response information corresponds to the first codeword, and the second acknowledgement bit of the first response information corresponds to the second codeword.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the second data comprises a third codeword and a fourth codeword, the third acknowledgment bit of the second response information corresponds to the third codeword, and the fourth acknowledgement bit of the second response information corresponds to the fourth codeword.
