Abstract

To appropriately perform communication even when transmission timings and/or transmission durations of a data channel and/or uplink control information are flexibly (variably) controlled, one aspect of a user terminal according to the present invention includes: a transmission section that transmits uplink control information; and a control section that controls the transmission of the uplink control information that uses an uplink shared channel, and at least one of a transmission timing and/or a transmission duration of the uplink shared channel, and a transmission timing and/or a transmission duration of the uplink control information are able to be configured differently per transmission, and, when the transmission duration of the uplink shared channel and at least part of the transmission duration of the uplink control information overlap, the control section transmits the uplink control information by using the uplink shared channel.

Claims (21)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

a transmitter that, when a transmission duration of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and at least part of a transmission duration of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for carrying uplink control information (UCI) notified by the second DCI overlap, transmits the UCI using the PUSCH and does not transmit the PUCCH,

wherein a start symbol of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and a start symbol of the PUCCH notified by the second DCI are after a last symbol of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) carrying the first DCI and a last symbol of another PDCCH carrying the second DCI.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the UCI includes transmission acknowledgement information (HARQ-ACK) that corresponds to the PDSCH.

3. A base station comprising:

a transmitter that transmits first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

a receiver that, when a transmission duration of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and at least part of a transmission duration of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for carrying uplink control information (UCI) notified by the second DCI overlap, receives the UCI using the PUSCH and does not receive the PUCCH,

wherein a start symbol of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and a start symbol of the PUCCH notified by the second DCI are after a last symbol of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) carrying the first DCI and a last symbol of another PDCCH carrying the second DCI.

4. A radio communication method for a terminal comprising:

receiving first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

when a transmission duration of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and at least part of a transmission duration of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for carrying uplink control information (UCI) notified by the second DCI overlap, transmitting the UCI using the PUSCH and not transmitting the PUCCH,

wherein a start symbol of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and a start symbol of the PUCCH notified by the second DCI are after a last symbol of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) carrying the first DCI and a last symbol of another PDCCH carrying the second DCI.

5. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein:

the terminal comprises:

a first receiver that receives first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and second DCI for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

a first transmitter that, when a transmission duration of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and at least part of a transmission duration of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for carrying uplink control information (UCI) notified by the second DCI overlap, transmits the UCI using the PUSCH and does not transmit the PUCCH; and

the base station comprises:

a second transmitter that transmits the first DCI and the second DCI; and

a second receiver that, when the transmission duration of the PUSCH and at least part of the transmission duration of the PUCCH overlap, receives the UCI using the PUSCH and does not receive the PUCCH,

wherein a start symbol of the PUSCH notified by the first DCI and a start symbol of the PUCCH notified by the second DCI are after a last symbol of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) carrying the first DCI and a last symbol of another PDCCH carrying the second DCI.
