Abstract

Claims (216)

1. A method for transmitting uplink control information by a communication apparatus in a wireless communication system using time division duplex (TDD), the method comprising:

detecting at least one physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or at least one physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

generating reception response information for the at least one PDCCH or the at least one PDSCH,

wherein, when the reception response information and channel status information are configured to be transmitted in a same subframe and the communication apparatus is configured to use a second physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) format, and if a certain condition is satisfied, the reception response information and the channel status information are transmitted together using a first PUCCH format, and

wherein the certain condition includes a first condition of a single PDSCH transmission only on a primary cell (PCell) without a PDCCH corresponding to the PDSCH transmission being present.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the certain condition includes the first condition or a second condition of a single PDSCH transmission only on the PCell indicated by detection of a PDCCH having a downlink assignment index (DAI) initial value being present.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the certain condition includes the first condition, the second condition, or a third condition of a single PDCCH transmission only on the PCell that has the DAI initial value and indicates a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) release being present.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein, when the reception response information and the channel status information are configured to be transmitted in the same subframe, if the certain condition is not satisfied, the reception response information is transmitted using the second PUCCH format and the channel status information is dropped.

5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein if the certain condition is not satisfied, a resource for the second PUCCH format is indicated by a value of a transmit power control (TPC) field of one or more secondary cell (SCell) PDCCHs and one or more PCell PDCCHs not corresponding to the DAI initial value.

6. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the DAI initial value is 1.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one PDCCH or the at least one PDSCH is detected in at least n-k (kεK), the reception response information is transmitted in a subframe n, and K is given by the below table in accordance with an uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration:

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second PUCCH format is a PUCCH format 3, and

wherein the PUCCH format 3 is a block-spreading based PUCCH format using Orthogonal Cover Code (OCC) based time-domain spreading.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first PUCCH format is a PUCCH format 2, 2a or 2b,

wherein the PUCCH format 2 includes channel status information when not multiplexed with Hybrid Automatic Repeat and reQuest ACKnowledgment (HARQ-ACK) information or includes the channel status information with the HARQ-ACK information in a case of an extended Cyclic prefix (CP),

wherein the PUCCH format 2a includes the channel status information with 1-bit HARQ-ACK information in a case of normal CP, and

wherein the PUCCH format 2b includes the challenge status information with 2-bit HARQ-ACK information in the case in the normal CP.

10. A communication apparatus configured to transmit uplink control information in a wireless communication system using time division duplex (TDD), the communication apparatus comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit; and

a processor configured to:

detect at least one physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or at least one physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and

generate reception response information for the at one PDCCH or the least one PDSCH,

wherein, when the reception response information and channel status information are configured to be transmitted in a same subframe and the communication apparatus is configured to use a second physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) format, and if a certain condition is satisfied, the reception response information and the channel status information are transmitted together using a first PUCCH format, and

wherein the certain condition includes a first condition of a single PDSCH transmission only on a primary cell (PCell) without a PDCCH corresponding to the PDSCH transmission being present.
