Method for operating terminal in carrier aggregation system, and apparatus using said method
A method and corresponding apparatus, where the apparatus transmits, to a user equipment (UE), downlink control information (DCI) including a downlink assignment index (DAI) through an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH). The DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH includes an additional field which is not present in DCI transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). If the DAI value included in the DCI is greater than 1, the additional field is used to determine a single resource for the ACK/NACK among the plurality of PUCCH resources configured by a higher layer signal.
1. A method for operating an apparatus in a carrier aggregation system, the method comprising:
configuring, to a user equipment (UE), a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources by a higher layer signal;
transmitting, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) including a downlink assignment index (DAI) through an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) of a first subframe;
transmitting, to the UE, data scheduled by the DCI through a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) of the first subframe; and
receiving, from the UE, an acknowledgement (ACK)/not-acknowledgement (NACK) for the data through a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a second subframe,
wherein the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH includes an additional field which is not present in DCI transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and
wherein if the DAI value is greater than 1, the additional field is used for the UE to determine a single resource for the ACK/NACK among the plurality of PUCCH resources configured by the higher layer signal.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH includes a transmission power control (TPC) field.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein if the DAI value is greater than 1, the TPC field of the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH is used to control uplink transmission power.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH is transmitted in a primary cell and schedules a PDSCH of a secondary cell.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the DAI value of the DCI transmitted through the PDCCH is greater than 1, a TPC field included in the DCI transmitted in the PDCCH is used to determine one resource used for ACK/NACK transmission among a plurality of PUCCH resources configured by a higher layer signal.
6. An apparatus operating in a carrier aggregation system, the apparatus comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a radio signal; and
a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver,
wherein the processor is configured for:
configuring, to a user equipment (UE), a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources by a higher layer signal;
transmitting, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) including a downlink assignment index (DAI) through an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) of a first subframe;
transmitting, to the UE, data scheduled by the DCI through a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) of the first subframe; and
receiving, from the UE, an acknowledgement (ACK)/not-acknowledgement (NACK) for the data through a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a second subframe,
wherein the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH includes an additional field which is not present in DCI transmitted through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and
wherein if the DAI value is greater than 1, the additional field is used for the UE to determine a single resource for the ACK/NACK among the plurality of PUCCH resources configured by the higher layer signal.
7. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH includes a transmission power control (TPC) field.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein if the DAI value is greater than 1, the TPC field of the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH is used to control uplink transmission power.
9. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein if the DCI transmitted through the E-PDCCH is transmitted in a primary cell and schedules a PDSCH of a secondary cell.
10. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein if the DAI value of the DCI transmitted through the PDCCH is greater than 1, a TPC field included in the DCI transmitted in the PDCCH is used to determine one resource used for ACK/NACK transmission among a plurality of PUCCH resources configured by a higher layer signal.
