Abstract:
A method for transmitting an uplink signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, and the UE therefore are discussed. The method according to one embodiment includes receiving, by the UE, control information through a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); determining, by the UE, a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource by adding a first index offset and a second index offset to a lowest index of one or more resource units used for the PDCCH, the first index offset being signaled through the PDCCH and the second index offset being signaled through higher layer signaling; and transmitting, by the UE, acknowledgment/negative-acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) information using the PUCCH resource.
Abstract:
A method of configuring a positive acknowledgement (ACK) or negative acknowledgement (NACK) in a wireless communication system based on time division duplex (TDD) in which M, M=4, downlink subframes are associated with an uplink subframe. The method is performed by a user equipment receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). The user equipment receives at least one downlink transport block in the M downlink subframes from a first serving cell. The user equipment determines ACK/NACK states {HARQ-ACK(1), HARQ-ACK(2), HARQ-ACK(3), HARQ-ACK(4)} for the first serving cell. The use equipment determines an ACK/NACK response based on the ACK/NACK states.

Abstract:
A method, performed by a user equipment, is described for uplink transmission in a wireless communication system. A first time alignment (TA) to a first cell belonging to a first timing advance group (TAG) is performed. A second TA to a second cell belonging to a second TAG is performed. A determination is made as to whether to transmit or drop a sounding reference signal (SRS) on a subframe. The SRS is determined to be dropped based on whether the first and second TAGs are configured, whether at least one symbol of the subframe is used to transmit the SRS toward the second cell of the second TAG and also used to transmit a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) toward the first cell of the first TAG, and whether a total uplink transmission power exceeds a maximum value.

Abstract:
A method of transmitting signals including determining, per each of the component carriers, transmission power of at least one channel for simultaneous transmission, in such a way that a total transmission power of the at least one channel does not exceed a maximum transmission power configured for a corresponding component carrier; and checking whether a total transmission power of channels over the multiple component carriers for the simultaneous transmission exceeds a total maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus or not. If the total transmission power of the channels exceeds the total maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus, transmission power of at least one PUSCH among the channels is adjusted in such a way that an adjusted total transmission power over the multiple component carriers does not exceed the total maximum transmission power.
