Abstract

A user terminal according to one aspect of the present disclosure has a transmission section that transmits uplink control information by using an uplink shared channel, and a control section that selects resource elements, which are provided at given frequency intervals, and which are for mapping the uplink control information, in a symbol adjacent to a symbol for a demodulation reference signal for the uplink shared channel.

Claims (37)

1. A terminal comprising:

a processor that determines resource elements at a frequency interval for mapping uplink control information in an uplink shared channel; and

a transmitter that transmits, by using the uplink shared channel, an uplink data and the uplink control information configured by one or more coded bits,

wherein a first portion of the uplink control information including delivery acknowledgement information for a downlink shared channel is mapped in resource elements in a symbol neighboring a demodulation reference signal symbol of the uplink shared channel,

a second portion of the uplink control information including channel state information (CSI), the CSI being based on a CSI reference signal (CSI-RS), is mapped in resource elements in symbols that are not adjacent to the demodulation reference signal symbol,

in the symbol neighboring the demodulation reference signal symbol, the processor maps an uplink data to resource elements other than the resource elements to which the first portion of the uplink control information including the delivery acknowledgement information for the downlink shared channel is mapped,

a location where the uplink control information is mapped and whether the uplink control information is mapped to resources subject to rate matching or to resources subject to puncturing are controlled based on a type of the uplink control information, and

the processor maps uplink data that is transmitted on the uplink shared channel and that is different from the uplink control information in a frequency direction first, and thereafter maps the uplink data in a time direction.

2. A radio communication method for a terminal comprising:

determining resource elements at a frequency interval for mapping uplink control information in an uplink shared channel,

wherein, in a symbol neighboring a demodulation reference signal symbol of the uplink shared channel, mapping an uplink data to resource elements other than resource elements to which a first portion of the uplink control information including delivery acknowledgement information for a downlink shared channel is mapped;

transmitting, by using the uplink shared channel, an uplink data and the uplink control information configured by one or more coded bits,

wherein the first portion of the uplink control information including the delivery acknowledgement information for the downlink shared channel is mapped in resource elements in the symbol neighboring the demodulation reference signal symbol of the uplink shared channel,

a second portion of the uplink control information including channel state information (CSI), the CSI being based on a CSI reference signal (CSI-RS), is mapped in resource elements in symbols that are not adjacent to the demodulation reference signal symbol, and

a location where the uplink control information is mapped and whether the uplink control information is mapped to resources subject to rate matching or to resources subject to puncturing are controlled based on a type of the uplink control information; and

mapping uplink data that is transmitted on the uplink shared channel and that is different from the uplink control information in a frequency direction first, and thereafter mapping the uplink data in a time direction.

3. A base station comprising:

a processor that controls to receive uplink control information mapped to resource elements at a frequency interval in an uplink shared channel; and

a receiver that receives, by using the uplink shared channel, an uplink data and the uplink control information configured by one or more coded bits,

wherein a first portion of the uplink control information including delivery acknowledgement information for a downlink shared channel is mapped in resource elements in a symbol neighboring a demodulation reference signal symbol of the uplink shared channel,

a second portion of the uplink control information including channel state information (CSI), the CSI being based on a CSI reference signal (CSI-RS), is mapped in resource elements in symbols that are not adjacent to the demodulation reference signal symbol,

in the symbol neighboring the demodulation reference signal symbol, the processor controls to receive an uplink data mapped to resource elements other than the resource elements to which the first portion of the uplink control information including the delivery acknowledgement information for the downlink shared channel is mapped,

a location where the uplink control information is mapped and whether the uplink control information is mapped to resources subject to rate matching or to resources subject to puncturing are controlled based on a type of the uplink control information, and

uplink data that is received on the uplink shared channel and that is different from the uplink control information is mapped in a frequency direction first, and thereafter is mapped in a time direction.

4. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein:

the terminal comprises:

a processor of the terminal that determines resource elements at a frequency interval for mapping uplink control information in an uplink shared channel; and

a transmitter that transmits, by using the uplink shared channel, an uplink data and the uplink control information configured by one or more coded bits,

wherein, in a symbol neighboring a demodulation reference signal symbol of the uplink shared channel, the processor of the terminal maps an uplink data to resource elements other than resource elements to which a first portion of the uplink control information including delivery acknowledgement information for a downlink shared channel is mapped, and

the processor of the terminal maps uplink data that is transmitted on the uplink shared channel and that is different from the uplink control information in a frequency direction first, and thereafter maps the uplink data in a time direction; and

the base station comprises:

a processor of the base station that controls to receive the uplink control information; and

a receiver that receives, by using the uplink shared channel, the uplink data and the uplink control information configured by the one or more coded bits,

wherein, in the symbol neighboring the demodulation reference signal symbol, the processor of the base station controls to receive the uplink data mapped to the resource elements, and

wherein the first portion of the uplink control information including the delivery acknowledgement information for the downlink shared channel is mapped in resource elements in the symbol neighboring the demodulation reference signal symbol of the uplink shared channel,

a second portion of the uplink control information including channel state information (CSI), the CSI being based on a CSI reference signal (CSI-RS), is mapped in resource elements in symbols that are not adjacent to the demodulation reference signal symbol, and

a location where the uplink control information is mapped and whether the uplink control information is mapped to resources subject to rate matching or to resources subject to puncturing are controlled based on a type of the uplink control information.
