Abstract

Disclosed herein are a method for transmitting and receiving uplink control information between a terminal and a base station in a wireless communication system and devices supporting the same. Particularly, disclosed herein are a method for transmitting and receiving uplink control information between a terminal and a base station on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) without data (e.g., UL-SCH) and operation of devices supporting the same.

Claims (296)

1. A method for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), scaling information for a transmission of the UCI; and

transmitting, to the BS, the UCI on physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) without uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) based on the scaling information,

wherein the UCI includes acknowledgement (ACK) information and channel state information (CSI),

wherein the number of first coded modulation symbols for transmission of the ACK information is determined based on the scaling information,

wherein, based on the CSI including CSI part 1 without CSI part 2, the number of second coded modulation symbols for transmission of the CSI part 1 satisfies:

wherein a transmission duration of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for scheduling the transmission of the UCI is overlapped with a plurality of PUSCHs,

wherein the plurality of PUSCHs includes one or more first PUSCHs scheduled by corresponding uplink grants and one or more second PUSCHs configured without corresponding uplink grants, and

wherein the PUSCH in which the UCI is transmitted is one of the one or more first PUSCHs.

5. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the PUSCH in which the UCI is transmitted is a PUSCH transmitted first among the one or more first PUSCHs.

6. A method for receiving uplink control information (UCI) by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), scaling information for receiving the UCI; and

receiving, from the UE, the UCI on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) without an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH),

wherein the UCI includes acknowledgement (ACK) information and channel state information (CSI),

wherein the number of first coded modulation symbols for transmission of the ACK information is determined based on the scaling information,

wherein, based on the CSI including CSI part 1 without CSI part 2, the number of second coded modulation symbols for transmission of the CSI part 1 satisfies:
