Abstract

Provided is a method and a device for transmitting an Ack/Nack of sPUCCH in response to the reception of short TTI-based sPDSCH in a 3GPP LTE/LTE-Advanced system. A base station may set, for each terminal, an offset value for setting a link between sPDSCH and sPUCCH, and transmit the set offset value to the terminal through upper layer signaling (RRC signaling), thereby enabling a terminal to use the offset value to allocate sPUCCH resources for transmitting an Ack/Nack in response to the reception of sPDSCH.

Claims (24)

1. A method of transmitting a short uplink physical control channel (sPUCCH), the method comprising:

receiving a downlink data channel from a base station;

receiving an user equipment (UE)-specific offset value to transmit the sPUCCH for the downlink data channel through higher layer signaling; and

transmitting the sPUCCH including ACK/NACK information for the downlink data channel through a resource determined based on the UE-specific offset value,

wherein a 2-bit value of a sPUCCH field is included in a downlink control information (DCI) for determining the resource to transmit the sPUCCH for the downlink data channel.

2. The method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the higher layer signaling comprises a radio resource control message.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a time interval for transmitting the downlink data channel is different from a time interval for transmitting the uplink control channel.

4. A method of receiving a short uplink physical control channel (sPUCCH), the method comprising:

transmitting a downlink data channel to a user equipment;

transmitting an user equipment (UE)-specific offset value to receive the sPUCCH for the downlink data channel through higher layer signaling; and

receiving the sPUCCH including ACK/NACK information for the downlink data channel through a resource determined based on the UE-specific offset value,

wherein a 2-bit value of a sPUCCH field is included in a downlink control information (DCI) for determining the resource to receive the sPUCCH for the downlink data channel.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the higher layer signaling comprises a radio resource control message.

6. The method according to claim 4 ,

wherein a time interval for transmitting the downlink data channel is different from a time interval for transmitting the uplink control channel.

7. A user equipment for transmitting a short uplink physical control channel (sPUCCH), the user equipment comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a downlink data channel from a base station and receive an user equipment (UE)-specific offset value to transmit the uplink control channel for the downlink data channel through higher layer signaling; and

a controller configured to determine a resource for transmitting the sPUCCH based on the offset value and transmit the sPUCCH,

wherein a 2-bit value of a sPUCCH field is included in a downlink control information (DCI) for determining the resource to transmit the sPUCCH for the downlink data channel.

8. The user equipment according to claim 7 ,

wherein the higher layer signaling comprises a radio resource control message.

9. The user equipment according to claim 7 ,

wherein the a time interval for transmitting the downlink data channel is different from a time interval for transmitting the uplink control channel.
