A method for transmitting uplink control information and an apparatus therefor are disclosed. In a method for transmitting uplink control information using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a wireless communication system, the method is performed by a terminal and includes receiving downlink control information including an accumulated number of physical downlink shared channels (PDSCH) transmissions associated with a cell group configured for the terminal, coding the uplink control information using the accumulated number of PDSCH transmissions, and transmitting the coded uplink control information using the PUSCH.

Provided are an eNodeB (eNB) and a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting a machine type communication (MTC). The present invention comprises: receiving a first message including a UE-specific configuration on the basis of a common configuration for a plurality of UEs; and receiving a second message according to the UE-specific configuration, wherein the common configuration may include at least one of the number of times of repetition of the first message and a rate matching pattern of the first message.

The present invention provides an uplink signal transmission/receiving method and an apparatus therefor, and a downlink signal transmission/receiving method and an apparatus therefor. In a half duplex frequency division duplex (HD-FDD), when uplink transmission and downlink receipt are performed on the same subframe or neighboring subframes, a user equipment drops one of the uplink transmission and the downlink receipt according to a priority, and performs only transmission which is not dropped. The priority includes periodically unavailable resources, that is, aperiodic resources, taking priority over periodically available resources. If the uplink transmission is periodic, for example assigned in a semi-static manner or in a semi-persistent manner, and a downlink transmission is aperiodic, for example assigned dynamically, the user equipment drops the uplink transmission and performs the downlink receipt.

The present invention discloses an information transmission method, a terminal device, a network device, and an apparatus. The method includes: modulating, by a terminal device, encoded hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) information according to a codebook, to generate HARQ modulation symbols, where the HARQ modulation symbols include at least one non-zero HARQ modulation symbol and at least one zero HARQ modulation symbol, the codebook includes at least two code words, the code words are multi-dimensional complex vectors, and the code words are used to indicate a mapping relationship between a bit and at least two modulation symbols; sending the HARQ modulation symbols to a network device.

Disclosed is a base station in which the frequency usage efficiency can be improved when the communication bandwidths are asymmetric in the uplink line and the downlink line. A base station can communicate by using a plurality of downlink unit bands and a smaller number of uplink unit bands. A control unit allocates uplink resource allocation information and downlink resource allocation information to a PDCCH which is arranged in each of the plurality of downlink unit bands, and allocates a response signal to the uplink line data to a PHICH which is arranged in the same number of downlink unit bands from the plurality of downlink unit bands as there are uplink unit bands. A transmit RF unit transmits the resource allocation information or the response signal.

A method and an apparatus for allocating ACKnowledgement (ACK)/Non-ACKnowledgement (NACK) channel resources and processing confirmation information are disclosed. The method includes: The network side determines one physical channel area among multiple physical channel areas to be used by an ACK/NACK channel, and notifies the determined physical channel area to a User Equipment (UE) so as to enable the UE to determine a channel for receiving or sending ACK/NACK information in the determined physical channel area according to a mapping rule. Moreover, the network side may send or receive ACK/NACK information on the physical channel area that includes the ACK/NACK channel. The method and apparatus improve the utilization ratio and flexibility of the ACK/NACK channel, and reduce the probability of conflict generated by the ACK/NACK channel.

A method for performing a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and includes receiving data in a first subframe of a secondary cell; and transmitting acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information for the data in a second subframe of a primary cell, wherein the primary cell uses a frame comprising at least one downlink subframe and at least one uplink subframe according to an uplink-downlink configuration, wherein the secondary cell uses a frame comprising consecutive downlink subframes, and wherein a maximum number of HARQ processes for the secondary cell is dependent on the uplink-downlink configuration of the primary cell.

A method is disclosed for PHICH resource allocation in a wireless communication system that supports flexible TDD UL-DL configuration and in which different TDD UL-DL configurations are available and the TDD UL-DL configuration used by first UEs which operate according to the flexible TDD configuration can be different to the TDD UL-DL configuration used by second UEs which operate according to a long term TDD UL-DL configuration. The method comprising allocating a PHICH resource for both first UEs and second UEs according to LTE timing rules applicable to the TDD UL-DL configuration in use by second UEs.

Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods to establish a connection to the Internet via a local gateway (L-GW) function for a LIPA or a SIPTO@LN. The establishment of the connection to the Internet may be performed, for example, by at least one of an E-RAB SETUP procedure, an INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP procedure, an INITIAL UE MESSAGE procedure or an UPLINK NAS TRANSPORT procedure.

There are described methods, devices and systems for bundling of HARQ feedback for a carrier aggregation. Bundling is performed based on one of: Frequency domain bundling; Differentiated bundling for different frequency bands (e.g. differentiated bundling for licensed and unlicensed carriers); differentiated bundling for primary carrier and secondary carriers; and DL CC group specific bundling configuration.
