Abstract

A method for transmitting uplink control information and an apparatus therefor are disclosed. In a method for transmitting uplink control information using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a wireless communication system, the method is performed by a terminal and includes receiving downlink control information including an accumulated number of physical downlink shared channels (PDSCH) transmissions associated with a cell group configured for the terminal, coding the uplink control information using the accumulated number of PDSCH transmissions, and transmitting the coded uplink control information using the PUSCH.

Claims (36)

1. A method for transmitting control information by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a first downlink control information (DCI) for downlink (DL) scheduling, the first DCI including a DL downlink assignment index (DAI);

receiving a downlink data indicated by the first DCI; and

transmitting the control information through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), the control information including acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) response about the downlink data,

wherein the control information is generated based on an uplink (UL) DAI in a second DCI for scheduling the PUSCH, and

wherein the DL DAI indicates a value related to an accumulated number of DCIs related with downlink scheduling, across a cell group including a plurality of cells, up to a DCI timing corresponding to the first DCI, during a downlink duration.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication system supports more than 5 downlink cells.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the control information is generated further based on a semi-statically configured maximum number of downlink data which can be scheduled by each DCI for DL scheduling.

4. A method for receiving control information by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting a first downlink control information (DCI) for downlink, DL, scheduling, the first DCI including a DL downlink assignment index, DAI;

transmitting a downlink data indicated by the first DCI; and

receiving the control information through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), the control information including acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) response about the downlink data,

wherein the control information is generated based on an uplink (UL) DAI in a second DCI for scheduling the PUSCH, and

wherein the DL DAI indicates a value related to an accumulated number of DCIs related with downlink scheduling, across a cell group including a plurality of cells, up to a DCI timing corresponding to the first DCI, during a downlink duration.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the wireless communication system supports more than 5 downlink cells.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the control information is generated further based on a semi-statically configured maximum number of downlink data which can be scheduled by each DCI for DL scheduling.

7. A terminal configured to transmit control information in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit; and

a processor configured to control the RF unit,

wherein the processor is configured to receive a first downlink control information (DCI) for downlink (DL) scheduling, the first DCI including a DL downlink assignment index (DAI),

receive a downlink data indicated by the first DCI, and

transmit the control information through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), the control information including acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) response about the downlink data,

wherein the control information is generated based on a uplink (UL) DAI in a second DCI for scheduling the PUSCH, and

wherein the DL DAI indicates a value related to an accumulated number of DCIs related with downlink scheduling, across a cell group including a plurality of cells, up to a DCI timing corresponding to the first DCI, during a downlink duration.

8. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the wireless communication system supports more than 5 downlink cells.

9. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the control information is generated further based on a semi-statically configured maximum number of downlink data which can be scheduled by each DCI for DL scheduling.

10. A base station configured to receive control information in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit; and

a processor configured to control the RF unit,

wherein the processor is configured to transmit a first downlink control information (DCI) for downlink (DL) scheduling, the first DCI including a DL downlink assignment index (DAI)

transmit a downlink data indicated by the first DCI, and

receive the control information through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), the control information including acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) response about the downlink data,

wherein the control information is generated based on a uplink (UL) DAI in a second DCI for scheduling the PUSCH, and

wherein the DL DAI indicates a value related to an accumulated number of DCIs related with downlink scheduling, across a cell group including a plurality of cells, up to a DCI timing corresponding to the first DCI, during a downlink duration.

11. The base station of claim 10 , wherein the wireless communication system supports more than 5 downlink cells.

12. The base station of claim 10 , wherein the control information is generated further based on a semi-statically configured maximum number of downlink data which can be scheduled by each DCI for DL scheduling.
