Method and apparatus for transmitting reception acknowledgement information in wireless communication system
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for transmitting reception acknowledgement for an HARQ (hybrid automatic repeat request) in a wireless communication system. A terminal receives the information on downlink resource allocation through at least one downlink carrier among plural downlink carriers. In addition, the terminal receives a downlink transmission block through a downlink shared channel indicated by the downlink resource allocation. The terminal transmits an ACK/NACK signal for the downlink transmission block through an uplink control channel. If at least one downlink carrier is a primary carrier, the uplink control channel uses a primary resource. Otherwise, the uplink control channel uses a secondary resource.
1. A method for transmitting a reception acknowledgement for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) of a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) through one of a first component carrier and a second component carrier, the DCI including a downlink resource allocation;
receiving a downlink transport block in accordance with the downlink resource allocation through one of the first component carrier and the second component carrier; and
transmitting a ACK/NACK signal for the downlink transport block on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH),
wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the first component carrier, a resource used for the PUCCH is determined from a resource used for the PDCCH,
wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the second component carrier, the resource used for the PUCCH is determined from one of reserved resources which are configured by a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message, and
wherein the resource used for the PUCCH is associated with an orthogonal sequence with which the ACK/NACK signal is spread.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein if downlink transport blocks are received through the second component carrier and the first component carrier, the resource used for the PUCCH is determined from one of the reserved resources.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the second component carrier, the DCI includes an indicator indicating one of the reserved resources.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the first component carrier, a payload size of the PUCCH is one or two bits, and if the downlink transport block is received through the second component carrier, a payload size of the PUCCH is more than two bits.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the resource used for the PDCCH is a lowest control channel element (CCE) index used for transmission of the PDCCH.
6. A user equipment configured for transmitting a reception acknowledgement for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:
a radio frequency (RF) unit configured for transmitting and receiving a radio signal; and
a processor operably coupled to the RF unit and configured for:
receiving downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) through one of a first component carrier and a second component carrier, the DCI including a downlink resource allocation;
receiving a downlink transport block in accordance with the downlink resource allocation through one of the first component carrier and the second component carrier; and
transmitting a ACK/NACK signal for the downlink transport block on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH),
wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the first component carrier, a resource used for the PUCCH is determined from a resource used for the PDCCH,
wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the second component carrier, the resource used for the PUCCH is determined from one of reserved resources which are configured by a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message, and
wherein the resource used for the PUCCH is associated with an orthogonal sequence with which the ACK/NACK signal is spread.
7. The user equipment of claim 6 , wherein if downlink transport blocks are received through the second component carrier and the first component carrier, the resource used for the PUCCH is determined from one of the reserved resources.
8. The user equipment of claim 6 , wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the second component carrier, the DCI includes an indicator indicating one of the reserved resources.
9. The user equipment of claim 6 , wherein if the downlink transport block is received through the first component carrier, a payload size of the PUCCH is one or two bits, and if the downlink transport block is received through the second component carrier, a payload size of the PUCCH is more than two bits.
10. The user equipment of claim 6 , wherein the resource used for the PDCCH is a lowest control channel element (CCE) index used for transmission of the PDCCH.
