Abstract

A method and an apparatus of transmitting scheduling request (SR) in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes configuring a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for a SR in a subframe, the subframe comprising a plurality of single carrier-frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) symbols, wherein one SC-FDMA symbol on the PUCCH is punctured and transmitting the SR on the PUCCH in the subframe.

Claims (19)

1. A method of transmitting a scheduling request (SR), the method performed by a mobile terminal and comprising:

receiving a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration to determine a SRS subframe;

receiving a simultaneous transmission indicator indicating whether the mobile terminal is configured to support a transmission of a SRS and a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement/not-acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in one subframe; and

transmitting the SRS and a SR in the SRS subframe, if the mobile terminal is configured to support the transmission of the SRS and the HARQ ACK/NACK on the PUCCH in the one subframe,

wherein the SRS subframe includes a plurality of single carrier-frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) symbols, and

wherein the SRS is transmitted in a last SC-FDMA symbol of the SRS subframe and the SR is transmitted in remaining SC-FDMA symbols of the SRS subframe.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the last SC-FDMA symbol is used for the SRS is a punctured SC-FDMA symbol.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting the HARQ ACK/NACK on the PUCCH in the SRS subframe.

4. A mobile terminal configured to transmit a scheduling request (SR), the mobile terminal comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit configured to transmit and receive a radio signal; and

a processor coupled with the RF unit and configured to:

receive, via the RF unit, a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration to determine a SRS subframe;

receive, via the RF unit, a simultaneous transmission indicator indicating whether the mobile terminal is configured to support a transmission of a SRS and a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement/not-acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in one subframe; and

transmit, via the RF unit, the SRS and a SR in the SRS subframe, if the mobile terminal is configured to support the transmission of the SRS and the HARQ ACK/NACK on the PUCCH in the one subframe,

wherein the SRS subframe includes a plurality of single carrier-frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) symbols, and

wherein the SRS is transmitted in a last SC-FDMA symbol of the SRS subframe and the SR is transmitted in remaining SC-FDMA symbols of the SRS subframe.

5. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein the last SC-FDMA symbol is used for the SRS is a punctured SC-FDMA symbol.

6. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein the HARQ ACK/NACK is transmitted on the PUCCH in the SRS subframe.
