Abstract

A terminal with which it is possible to appropriately transmit uplink control information. In a terminal ( 200 ), a reception unit ( 202 ) receives first control information relating to an uplink data channel, and a second control information relating to an uplink control channel for transmitting uplink control information. The first control information includes first indication information indicating the presence or absence of an uplink data transmission and second indication information indicating the presence or absence a channel state information transmission. A transmission unit ( 220 ) transmits uplink control information using the resource of the uplink data channel when the first indication information indicates that there is no uplink data transmission and the second indication information indicates that there is no channel state information transmission.

Claims (36)

1. A terminal, comprising:

a receiver, which, in operation, receives downlink control information (DCI) including uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) indicator information and channel state information (CSI) request information; and

a transmitter, which, in operation, transmits acknowledge (ACK) information which is a part of uplink control information (UCI);

wherein the terminal sets a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) based on:

that the UL-SCH indicator information indicates that UL-SCH is not transmitted on the PUSCH; and

that the CSI request information indicates that CSI is not requested; and

the transmitter transmits the ACK information using the PUSCH.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the receiver is not expected to receive the DCI, which includes the UL-SCH indicator information indicating that UL-SCH is not transmitted on the PUSCH and the CSI request information indicating that CSI is not requested.

3. The terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the terminal multiplexes the ACK information in the PUSCH responsive to:

that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission allocated for a transmission of the UCI overlaps a PUSCH transmission; and

that an aperiodic CSI report or a semi-persistent CSI report is multiplexed in the PUSCH.

4. The terminal according to claim 1 ,

wherein the terminal sets a timing of transmission of the ACK information based on:

that the UL-SCH indicator information indicates that UL-SCH is not transmitted on the PUSCH; and

that the CSI request information indicates that CSI is not requested, and

the transmitter transmits the ACK information based on the timing.

5. A communication method comprising:

receiving downlink control information (DCI) including uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) indicator information and channel state information (CSI) request information;

transmitting acknowledge (ACK) information which is a part of uplink control information (UCI); and

setting a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) based on:

that the UL-SCH indicator information indicates that UL-SCH is not transmitted on the PUSCH; and

that the CSI request information indicates that CSI is not requested;

wherein the ACK information is transmitted using the PUSCH.

6. The communication method according to claim 5 ,

wherein the DCI is not expected, which includes the UL-SCH indicator information indicating that UL-SCH is not transmitted on the PUSCH and the CSI request information indicating that CSI is not requested.

7. The communication method according to claim 5 , comprising,

multiplexing the ACK information in the PUSCH responsive to:

that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission allocated for a transmission of the UCI overlaps a PUSCH transmission; and

that an aperiodic CSI report or a semi-persistent CSI report is multiplexed in the PUSCH.

8. The communication method according to claim 5 , comprising:

setting a timing of transmission of the ACK information based on:

that the UL-SCH indicator information indicates that UL-SCH is not transmitted on the PUSCH; and

that the CSI request information indicates that CSI is not requested;

wherein the ACK information is transmitted based on the timing.
