A transmission method for uplink control channel is provided, and the method comprises the following steps: a base station configures a transmission mode for the uplink control channel of a user equipment (UE) via high signaling; according to the transmission mode, the base station receives the uplink control channel sent by the UE via a transmit diversity or a single antenna port. A device for implementing the transmission for uplink control channel is also provided. With the present solution, according to the operation state of the system the base station flexibly configures the UE having multiple transmitting antennas to transfer uplink control channel by using different modes, so as to improve the reliability and efficiency of the system and enhance the performance of the system effectively.
