Embodiments of the present invention provide an uplink control information feedback method, a base station, and a user equipment. The method includes: receiving uplink scheduling information of a non-independent small base station; and sending uplink control information (UCI) over a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of the non-independent small base station according to the uplink scheduling information. In the embodiments of the present invention, the user equipment uses the physical uplink shared channel of the small base station to offload traffic from the physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), thereby reducing the load of the physical uplink control channel of the macro base station and reducing the collision probability.
