Abstract

Disclosed is a method for receiving, by a terminal which has been assigned multiple component carrier groups, control information in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: receiving control information for the multiple component carrier groups; and receiving data information via component carriers that belong to the multiple component carrier groups using the received control information, wherein the control information may comprise multiplex control information for each of the multiple component carrier groups, or single control information for the component carriers included in each of the multiple component carrier groups.

Claims (24)

1. A method for receiving, by a terminal which has been configured with a plurality of component carrier groups, control information in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving control information for the plurality of component carrier groups; and

decoding data information through component carriers belonging to the plurality of component carrier groups based on the received control information,

wherein the control information includes multi-control information for each of the plurality of component carrier groups, or single control information for component carriers included in each of the plurality of component carrier groups,

wherein the multi-control information includes resource allocation information for a component carrier allocated with the largest bandwidth among all component carriers belonging to a corresponding component carrier group when all the component carriers belonging to the corresponding component carrier group do not have the same bandwidth, and

wherein resource allocation information for the other component carriers belonging to the corresponding component carrier group is determined based on a portion of the resource allocation information of the component carrier allocated with the largest bandwidth.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the single control information includes at least one of transmission mode-dedicated single control information and transmission mode-common single control information of the terminal.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein resource allocation for each component carrier belonging to the corresponding component carrier group is performed depending on a respective resource allocation type for the each component carrier.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the multi-control information includes information indicating which component carrier within the component carrier group is a target scheduled by the multi-control information.

5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising bundling for ACK/NACK bits for the data information received through component carriers belonging to the plurality of component carrier groups and transmitting the bundled ACK/NACK bits through a specific resource,

wherein the specific resource is related to an index of one of the component carriers which are targets scheduled by the control information within the plurality of component carrier groups.

6. A terminal configured to receive control information in a wireless communication system, the terminal being configured with a plurality of component carrier groups, the terminal comprising:

a transmitter and a receiver; and

a processor configured to control the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor is configured to:

receive control information for the plurality of component carrier groups, and

decode data information through component carriers belonging to the plurality of component carrier groups based on the received control information,

wherein the control information includes multi-control information for each of the plurality of component carrier groups, or single control information for component carriers included in each of the plurality of component carrier groups,

wherein the multi-control information includes resource allocation information for a component carrier allocated with the largest bandwidth among all component carriers belonging to a corresponding component carrier group when all the component carriers belonging to the corresponding component carrier group do not have the same bandwidth, and

wherein resource allocation information for the other component carriers belonging to the corresponding component carrier group is determined based on a portion of the resource allocation information of the component carrier allocated with the largest bandwidth.

7. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the single control information includes at least one of transmission mode-dedicated single control information and transmission mode-common single control information of the terminal.

8. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein resource allocation for each component carrier belonging to the corresponding component carrier group is performed depending on a respective resource allocation type for the each component carrier.

9. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the multi-control information includes information indicating which component carrier within the component carrier group is a target scheduled by the multi-control information.

10. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the processor performs bundling for ACK/NACK bits for the data information received through component carriers belonging to the plurality of component carrier groups and transmits the bundled ACK/NACK bits through a specific resource, wherein the specific resource is related to an index of one of the component carriers which are targets scheduled by the control information within the plurality of component carrier groups.
