Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. In more detail, in relation to a method for a terminal to transmit ACK/NACK in a wireless communication system, an ACK/NACK transmission method includes: receiving at least one Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH); transmitting at least one ACK/NACK corresponding to the at least one PDSCH through a plurality of Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) formats; and, when the at least one ACK/NACK is transmitted using a first PUCCH format, transmitting at least one ACK/NACK in an antenna port transmission mode set for a second PUCCH format.

Claims (22)

1. A method for transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), an Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, by the UE, a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) from only a primary cell, wherein the UE is configured with a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) format 3; and

transmitting, by the UE to the primary cell, an ACK/NACK signal corresponding to the PDSCH using a first PUCCH format,

wherein the first PUCCH format is one of PUCCH format 1a and a PUCCH format 1b,

wherein the ACK/NACK signal is transmitted through a first antenna port and a second antenna port,

wherein a first PUCCH resource for the first antenna port is determined as n PUCCH (1,{tilde over (p)} 0 ) =n CCE +N PUCCH (1) , and a second PUCCH resource for the second antenna port is determined as n PUCCH (1,{tilde over (p)} 1 ) =n CCE +1+N PUCCH (1) , and

wherein n CCE is a number of lowest CCE index used for transmission of a corresponding Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), and N PUCCH (1) is a parameter configured by a radio resource control signal.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an antenna port transmission mode for the first PUCCH format is configured by a radio resource control signal.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein an antenna port transmission mode for the PUCCH format 3 is configured independently from the first PUCCH format.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ACK/NACK signal is transmitted based on a transmission mode configured for the PUCCH format 3.

5. A user equipment (UE) for transmitting an Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a Radio Frequency (RF) unit configured to receive and transmit radio signals; and

a processor configured to control the RF unit, wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive a Physical Downlink Shared Channel(PDSCH) from only a primary cell, wherein the UE is configured with a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) format 3; and

transmit an ACK/NACK signal corresponding to the PDSCH using a first PUCCH format,

wherein the first PUCCH format is one of PUCCH format 1a and a PUCCH format 1b,

wherein the ACK/NACK signal is transmitted through a first antenna port and a second antenna port,

wherein a first PUCCH resource for the first antenna port is determined as n PUCCH (1,{tilde over (p)} 0 ) =n CCE +N PUCCH (1) , and a second PUCCH resource for the second antenna port is determined as n PUCCH (1,{tilde over (p)} 1 ) =n CCE +1+N PUCCH (1) , and

wherein n CCE is a number of lowest CCE index used for transmission of a corresponding Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), and N PUCCH (1) is a parameter configured by a radio resource control signal.

6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein an antenna port transmission mode for the first PUCCH format is configured by a radio resource control signal.

7. The UE of claim 5 , wherein an antenna port transmission mode for the PUCCH format 3 is configured independently from the first PUCCH format.

8. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the ACK/NACK signal is transmitted based on a transmission mode configured for the PUCCH format 3.
