Abstract

A method for transmitting an uplink control channel for a terminal configured to support multiple transmission time interval (TTI) lengths in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention is performed by the terminal and may comprises the steps of: receiving a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) according to a first TTI length at a first time point; receiving a second PDSCH according to a second TTI length differing from the first TTI length at a second time point; and when TTIs for transmitting uplink control channels for the received first PDSCH and second PDSCH overlap, transmitting uplink control information for the first PDSCH and second PDSCH on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) having the shorter TTI length among the first TTI length and the second TTI length.
