Abstract

A base station of a wireless communication system is disclosed. The base station of the wireless communication includes: a communication module; and a processor configured to control the communication module. When a second physical uplink data channel transmission of the UE is scheduled to a time-frequency resource in which uplink control information (UCI) transmission of a first physical uplink data channel of the UE is scheduled, the processor is configured to transmit the UCI to a base station of the wireless communication system in a time-frequency resource except for a time-frequency resource in which a second physical uplink data channel transmission of the UE is scheduled.
