Terminal device, base station apparatus, communication method, and integrated circuit
A user equipment includes a receiver configured to receive a PDSCH and a transmitter configured to transmit a HARQ-ACK response for a serving cell. In a first case that the user equipment communicates with at least a serving cell having a duplex mode that is TDD, the transmitter is configured to transmit, in a primary cell, the HARQ-ACK response in an uplink subframe n upon detection of a PDSCH transmission in the serving cell within a subframe n−k. In a second case that the user equipment communicates with a primary cell and a secondary cell, duplex mode of the primary cell being FDD, the transmitter is configured to transmit, in the primary cell, the HARQ-ACK response in an uplink subframe m upon detection of a PDSCH transmission in the secondary cell in only a subframe m−4.
1. A user equipment comprising:
a receiver configured to receive a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) with a downlink control information (DCI) format for scheduling the PDSCH; and
a transmitter configured to transmit a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) response for a serving cell, wherein,
in a first case that the user equipment is configured for frequency division duplex (FDD)-time division duplex (TDD) carrier aggregation, and duplex mode of a primary cell is TDD, the transmitter is configured to transmit, in the primary cell, the HARQ-ACK response in uplink subframe n upon a detection of a PDSCH transmission in a secondary cell within subframe n−k, where k is an element of a downlink association set, the downlink association set defined on the basis of subframe n, and a downlink association index (DAI) field is present in the DCI format received by the PDSCH in subframe n−k,
a value of the DAI denotes an accumulative number of PDCCHs or EPDCCHs with assigned PDSCH transmission and the PDCCH or the EPDCCH indicating downlink semi-persistent scheduling release up to subframe n−k, and
in a second case that the user equipment is configured for FDD-TDD carrier aggregation, and duplex mode of the primary cell is FDD, the transmitter is configured to transmit, in the primary cell, the HARQ-ACK response in uplink subframe m upon a detection of a PDSCH transmission in the secondary cell in only subframe m−4, and the DAI field is not present in the DCI format received by the PDSCH in subframe m−4.
2. The user equipment according to claim 1 , wherein,
in the first case and in a third case that the secondary cell is configured for FDD, an uplink/downlink configuration for the primary cell is a downlink-reference (DL-reference) uplink/downlink configuration for the secondary cell.
3. The user equipment according to claim 2 , wherein,
in the first case and in a fourth case that the secondary cell is configured for FDD and the DL-reference uplink/downlink configuration for the primary cell is TDD uplink/downlink configuration 5, the user equipment is not expected to be configured with more than two serving cells.
