Abstract

A terminal apparatus receives a transport block in a primary cell, selects a first transmission method in a case that a scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, HARQ-ACK is transmitted in a subframe n, and a subframe q in a secondary cell does not correspond to any of first prescribed subframes, selects a second transmission method in a case that the subframe q corresponds to one of the first prescribed subframes, and transmits the HARQ-ACK in a PUCCH resource for the HARQ-ACK, wherein the subframe q is given by n−4 in a case that a first higher layer parameter for the secondary cell is not configured, and the subframe q is given by n−3 in a case that the first higher layer parameter for the secondary cell is configured for the terminal apparatus 1.

Claims (42)

1. A terminal apparatus for communicating with a base station apparatus by using at least two serving cells including one primary cell of FDD and one secondary cell of TDD, the terminal apparatus comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a transport block; and

a transmitter configured to

select a first transmission method in a case that a scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in a subframe n, and a subframe q in the secondary cell does not correspond to any of first prescribed subframes,

select a second transmission method in a case that the scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, the HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in the subframe n, and the subframe q in the secondary cell corresponds to one of the first prescribed subframes, and

transmit the HARQ-ACK in a PUCCH resource for the HARQ-ACK by using a transmission method selected, wherein

the first transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1b with channel selection for FDD,

the second transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1a or 1b for FDD,

the subframe q is a subframe n−4 in a case that a higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is not configured, and

the subframe q is a subframe n−3 in a case that the higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is configured.

2. The terminal apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the first prescribed subframes includes an uplink subframe and a special subframe of any of multiple prescribed configurations within a radio frame.

3. A base station apparatus for communicating with a terminal apparatus by using at least two serving cells including one primary cell of FDD and one secondary cell of TDD, the base station apparatus comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit a transport block; and

a receiver configured to

select a first transmission method in a case that a scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in a subframe n, and a subframe q in the secondary cell does not correspond to any of first prescribed subframes,

select a second transmission method in a case that the scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, the HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in the subframe n, and the subframe q in the secondary cell corresponds to one of the first prescribed subframes, and

receive the HARQ-ACK in a PUCCH resource for the HARQ-ACK, based on a transmission method selected, wherein

the first transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1b with channel selection for FDD,

the second transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1a or 1b for FDD,

the subframe q is a subframe n−4 in a case that a higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is not configured, and

the subframe q is a subframe n−3 in a case that the higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is configured.

4. The base station apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

the first prescribed subframes includes an uplink subframe and a special subframe of any of multiple prescribed configurations within a radio frame.

5. A communication method for a terminal apparatus for communicating with a base station apparatus by using at least two serving cells including one primary cell of FDD and one secondary cell of TDD, the communication method comprising the steps of:

receiving a transport block;

selecting a first transmission method in a case that a scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in a subframe n, and a subframe q in the secondary cell does not correspond to any of first prescribed subframes;

selecting a second transmission method in a case that the scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, the HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in the subframe n, and the subframe q in the secondary cell corresponds to one of the first prescribed subframes; and

transmitting the HARQ-ACK in a PUCCH resource for the HARQ-ACK by using a transmission method selected, wherein

the first transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1b with channel selection for FDD,

the second transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1a or 1b for FDD,

the subframe q is a subframe n−4 in a case that a higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is not configured, and

the subframe q is a subframe n−3 in a case that the higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is configured.

6. A communication method for a base station apparatus for communicating with a terminal apparatus by using at least two serving cells including one primary cell of FDD and one secondary cell of TDD, the communication method comprising the steps of:

transmitting a transport block;

selecting a first transmission method in a case that a scheduling request is a negative scheduling request, HARQ-ACK for the transport block is transmitted in a subframe n, and a subframe q in the secondary cell does not correspond to any of first prescribed subframes;

receiving the HARQ-ACK in a PUCCH resource for the HARQ-ACK, based on a transmission method selected, wherein

the first transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1b with channel selection for FDD,

the second transmission method is a method for transmitting HARQ-ACK with PUCCH format 1a or 1b for FDD,

the subframe q is a subframe n−4 in a case that a higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is not configured, and

the subframe q is a subframe n−3 in a case that the higher layer parameter shortProcessingTime for the secondary cell is configured.
