Method and apparatus for transmitting control information
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transmitting uplink control information when a plurality of cells is configured. The method includes receiving at least one of PDCCH(s) and PDSCH(s), generating reception response information about at least one of the PDCCH(s) and the PDSCH(s), and transmitting the reception response information through a PUCCH on an SR subframe.
1. A method for transmitting uplink control information at a communication apparatus configured with a plurality of cells including a Primary Cell (PCell) and a Secondary Cell (SCell) in a wireless communication system operating in a Time Division Duplex (TDD) mode, the method comprising:
receiving at least one of one or more Physical Downlink Control CHannel (PDCCH) signals and one or more Physical Downlink Shared CHannel (PDSCH) signals; and
transmitting reception response information about the at least one of the one or more PDCCH signals and the one or more PDSCH signals through a Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) on a subframe configured for Scheduling Request (SR) transmission,
wherein when a predetermined condition is not satisfied, the reception response information and SR information are multiplexed and transmitted using a first PUCCH resource for Hybrid Automatic Repeat request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK), and
wherein when the predetermined condition is satisfied, for a positive SR, the reception response information includes information about an ACK count for the at least one of the one or more PDCCH signals and the one or more PDSCH signals, and is transmitted using a PUCCH resource for SR,
wherein the predetermined condition includes at least one of the following conditions:
(1) a single PDSCH transmission only on the PCell indicated by detection of a PDCCH having a Downlink Assignment Index (DAI) initial value is present;
(2) a single PDCCH transmission only on the PCell that has the DAI initial value and indicates a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) release is present; and
(3) a single PDSCH transmission only on the PCell where there is not a corresponding PDCCH.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DAI initial value is 1.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ACK count is set to 0 when the reception response information about the at least one of the one or more PDCCH signals and the one or more PDSCH signals includes Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) or Discontinuous Transmission (DTX).
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein 1-bit information indicating a positive/negative SR is added to the reception response information when the predetermined condition is not satisfied.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PUCCH for HARQ-ACK is indicated by Transmit Power Control (TPC) field values of one or more SCell PDCCHs and/or one or more PCell PDCCHs that do not correspond to the DAI initial value when the predetermined condition is not satisfied.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the predetermined condition is satisfied, for a negative SR, the reception response information is transmitted using a second PUCCH resource for HARQ-ACK.
7. A communication apparatus configured to transmit uplink control information in a situation that a plurality of cells including a PCell and an SCell are configured in a wireless communication system operating in a Time Division Duplex (TDD) mode, the communication apparatus comprising:
a Radio Frequency (RF) unit; and
a processor configured to receive at least one of one or more Physical Downlink Control CHannel (PDCCH) signals and one or more Physical Downlink Shared CHannel (PDSCH) signals, and to transmit reception response information about the at least one of the one or more PDCCH signals and the one or more PDSCH signals through a Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) on a subframe configured for Scheduling Request (SR) transmission,
wherein when a predetermined condition is not satisfied, the reception response information and SR information are multiplexed and transmitted using a first PUCCH resource for Hybrid Automatic Repeat request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK), and
wherein when the predetermined condition is satisfied, for a positive SR, the reception response information includes information about an ACK count for the at least on of the one or more PDCCH signals and the one or more PDSCH signals and is transmitted using a PUCCH resource for SR,
wherein the predetermined condition includes at least one of the following conditions:
(1) a single PDSCH transmission designated by detection of a PDCCH having a Downlink Assignment Index (DAI) initial value is present on the PCell only;
(2) a single PDCCH transmission that has the DAI initial value and indicates a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) release is present on the PCell only; and
(3) a single PDSCH transmission without a corresponding PDCCH is present on the PCell only.
8. The communication apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the DAI initial value is 1.
9. The communication apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the ACK count is set to 0 when the reception response information about the at least one of the one or more PDCCH signals and the one or more PDSCH signals includes Negative Acknowledgement (NACK) or Discontinuous Transmission (DTX).
10. The communication apparatus of claim 7 , wherein 1-bit information indicating a positive/negative SR is added to the reception response information when the predetermined condition is not satisfied.
11. The communication apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the PUCCH for HARQ-ACK is indicated by Transmit Power Control (TPC) field values of one or more SCell PDCCHs and/or one or more PCell PDCCHs that do not correspond to the DAI initial value when the predetermined condition is not satisfied.
12. The communication apparatus of claim 7 , wherein when the predetermined condition is satisfied, for a negative SR, the reception response information is transmitted using a second PUCCH resource for HARQ-ACK.
