Abstract

A method of supporting data retransmission in a wireless communication system is disclosed. A method of supporting data retransmission in a wireless communication system which uses multiple carriers includes receiving NACK from a user equipment in response to a transmitted packet, transmitting scheduling information to the user equipment, the scheduling information indicating change of radio resources previously allocated for transmission of a retransmission packet, and transmitting the retransmission packet in accordance with the scheduling information.

Claims (23)

1. A method of supporting data retransmission in a wireless communication system which uses multiple carriers, the method comprising:

receiving a negative acknowledgement signal (NACK) from a user equipment in response to a transmitted packet;

transmitting scheduling information to the user equipment, the scheduling information indicating change of radio resources previously allocated for transmission of a retransmission packet; and

transmitting the retransmission packet in accordance with the scheduling information,

wherein the scheduling information includes a location field of allocated radio resources and wherein the change of radio resources previously allocated is indicated by setting the location field to 0,

wherein setting the location field to 0 indicates that the retransmission packet in the current retransmission period will be transmitted in a following retransmission period, and

wherein the scheduling information includes information indicating radio resources newly allocated for transmission of the retransmission packet.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the radio resources correspond to a time-frequency region.

3. A method of supporting data retransmission in a wireless communication system which uses multiple carriers, the method comprising:

transmitting a negative acknowledgement signal (NACK) in response to a packet transmitted from a base station;

receiving scheduling information from the base station, the scheduling information indicating change of radio resources previously allocated for transmission of a retransmission packet; and

receiving the retransmission packet in accordance with the scheduling information,

wherein the scheduling information includes a location field of allocated radio resources and wherein the change of radio resources previously allocated is indicated by setting the location field to 0,

wherein setting the location field to 0 indicates that the retransmission packet in the current retransmission period will be transmitted in a following retransmission period, and

wherein the scheduling information includes information indicating radio resources newly allocated for transmission of the retransmission packet.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the radio resources correspond to a time-frequency region.

5. A user equipment in a wireless communication system which uses multiple carriers, the user equipment being configured to perform the steps of:

transmitting a negative acknowledgement signal (NACK) in response to a packet transmitted from a base station;

receiving scheduling information from the base station, the scheduling information indicating change of radio resources previously allocated for transmission of a retransmission packet; and

receiving the retransmission packet in accordance with the scheduling information,

wherein the scheduling information includes a location field of allocated radio resources and wherein the change of radio resources previously allocated is indicated by setting the location field to 0,

wherein setting the location field to 0 indicates that the retransmission packet in the current retransmission period will be transmitted in a following retransmission period, and

wherein the scheduling information includes information indicating radio resources newly allocated for transmission of the retransmission packet.
