Abstract

A method and device for transmitting uplink control signals in a wireless communication system, the method including: reserving a preassigned scheduling request (SR) physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource used for transmission of a SR; determining a frequency domain sequence and an orthogonal sequence based on the preassigned SR PUCCH resource; spreading an ACK/NACK for Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) with the frequency domain sequence and the orthogonal sequence to generate a mapped sequence; and transmitting the mapped sequence.

Claims (16)

1. A method of transmitting uplink control signals in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

reserving a preassigned scheduling request (SR) physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource used for transmission of a SR;

determining a frequency domain sequence and an orthogonal sequence based on the preassigned SR PUCCH resource;

spreading an ACK/NACK for Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) with the frequency domain sequence and the orthogonal sequence to generate a mapped sequence; and

transmitting the mapped sequence.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mapped sequence is transmitted in a subframe, the subframe comprising two slots, each slot including a plurality of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SR is indicated by one of a positive and a negative transmission, the positive transmission being a presence of a SR transmission and the negative transmission being an absence of the SR transmission.

4. The method claim 1 , wherein the frequency domain sequence is determined by cyclically shifting a base sequence with a cyclic shift which is obtained from the preassigned SR PUCCH resource.

5. A mobile communication apparatus configured to transmit uplink control signals in a wireless communication system, the mobile communication apparatus comprising a transmitter configured for:

reserving a preassigned scheduling request (SR) physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource used for transmission of a SR;

determining a frequency domain sequence and an orthogonal sequence based on the preassigned SR PUCCH resource;

spreading an ACK/NACK for Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) with the frequency domain sequence and the orthogonal sequence to generate a mapped sequence; and

transmitting the mapped sequence.

6. The mobile communication apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the mapped sequence is transmitted in a subframe, the subframe comprising two slots, each slot including a plurality of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols.

7. The mobile communication apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the SR is indicated by one of a positive and a negative transmission, the positive transmission being a presence of a SR transmission and the negative transmission being an absence of the SR transmission.

8. The mobile communication apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the frequency domain sequence is determined by cyclically shifting a base sequence with a cyclic shift which is obtained from the preassigned SR PUCCH resource.
