Abstract

The present specification relates to a wireless communication system, and to a method and a device therefore, the method comprising: determining, in a state in which a first PUCCH resource related to a first UCI overlaps, in a time domain, a plurality of PUCCH resources related respectively to a plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads, a third PUCCH resource for multiplexing a first HARQ-ACK payload and the first UCI on the basis of the first UCI and the first HARQ-ACK payload related to one (a second PUCCH resource) of the plurality of PUCCH resources; and transmitting the first HARQ-ACK payload and the first UCI on the third PUCCH resource.

Claims (26)

1. A method of transmitting hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) information by a communication device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

in a state in which a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource associated with first uplink control information (UCI) overlaps with a plurality of PUCCH resources associated with a plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads in a time domain, determining a third PUCCH resource for multiplexing the first UCI and a first HARQ-ACK payload associated with a second PUCCH resource being one of the plurality of PUCCH resources, based on the first HARQ-ACK payload and the first UCI; and

transmitting the first HARQ-ACK payload and the first UCI in the third PUCCH resource,

wherein the remaining HARQ-ACK payloads except for the first HARQ-ACK payload among the plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads are not transmitted in the third PUCCH resource.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second PUCCH resource is an earliest PUCCH resource among the plurality of PUCCH resources.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second PUCCH resource is a PUCCH resource associated with a specific type of downlink channel among the plurality of PUCCH resources.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the specific type of downlink channel is a first type of channel between the first type of channel and a second type of channel, and

wherein the first type of channel has a lower quality of service (QoS) requirement than the second type of channel.

5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

in a state in which the third PUCCH resource overlaps with another PUCCH resource in the time domain, transmitting the plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads respectively in the plurality of PUCCH resources, while dropping transmission of the first UCI in the first PUCCH resource.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of PUCCH resources do not overlap with each other in the time domain.

7. A communication device for transmitting hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) information in a wireless communication system, the communication device comprising:

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor and storing instructions which when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

in a state in which a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource associated with first uplink control information (UCI) overlaps with a plurality of PUCCH resources associated with a plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads in a time domain, determining a third PUCCH resource for multiplexing the first UCI and a first HARQ-ACK payload associated with a second PUCCH resource being one of the plurality of PUCCH resources, based on the first HARQ-ACK payload and the first UCI; and

transmitting the first HARQ-ACK payload and the first UCI in the third PUCCH resource through the at least one transceiver, and

wherein the remaining HARQ-ACK payloads except for the first HARQ-ACK payload among the plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads are not transmitted in the third PUCCH resource.

8. The communication device according to claim 7 , wherein the second PUCCH resource is an earliest PUCCH resource among the plurality of PUCCH resources.

9. The communication device according to claim 7 , wherein the second PUCCH resource is a PUCCH resource associated with a specific type of downlink channel among the plurality of PUCCH resources.

10. The communication device according to claim 9 , wherein the specific type of downlink channel is a first type of channel between the first type of channel and a second type of channel, and

wherein the first type of channel has a lower quality of service (QoS) requirement than the second type of channel.

11. The communication device according to claim 7 , wherein the operations further comprise:

in a state in which the third PUCCH resource overlaps with another PUCCH resource in the time domain, transmitting the plurality of HARQ-ACK payloads respectively in the plurality of PUCCH resources, while dropping transmission of the first UCI in the first PUCCH resource.

12. The communication device according to claim 7 , wherein the plurality of PUCCH resources do not overlap with each other in the time domain.

13. The communication device according to claim 7 , wherein the communication device includes an autonomous driving vehicle communicable with at least a user equipment (UE), a network, or another autonomous driving vehicle other than the communication device.
