The present invention provides a method by which an MTC terminal measures channel state information (CSI), a method for transmitting CSI, and apparatuses supporting the same. A method by which the MTC terminal feeds back CSI in a wireless access system supporting machine type communication (MTC), according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: receiving allocation information on a limited MTC bandwidth allocated to the MK terminal; calculating CSI; and feeding back the CSI. Here, the CSI can include MTC wideband channel state information (MTC W-CQI) for the limited MTC bandwidth.

Described is a method and apparatus for processing an uplink (UL) signal at a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) in a wireless communication system to determine a discontinuous transmission (DTX) state. The method comprises receiving a UL channel signal at a PUCCH receiver apparatus and, after resource element (RE) demapping of said received UL channel signal in said PUCCH receiver apparatus, normalizing a signal power of at least one signal element or resource. The normalized power is compared to a selected, calculated or predetermined threshold and, based on said comparison, a determination is made on whether or not a DTX state has occurred.

The present invention pertains to a terminal device, which, when ARQ is used for communication that uses an uplink unit band and a plurality of downlink unit bands associated with the uplink unit band, and when a transmission mode that supports up to 2 TB in a PCell is set in the terminal, is capable of reducing the amount of signaling from a base station while eliminating a lack of PUCCH resources when semi-permanent scheduling (SPS) is used in the PCell. A control unit in this device selects one value among values obtained by adding 1 to four PUCCH resource indexes, which have been preset for PUCCH resource 1 by the base station, on the basis of values for transmission power control information (TPC command for PUCCH) in a PDCCH, for which notification has been received at the start of SPS.

Systems are disclosed for a communication system optimized for low data volume communications. In embodiments of the invention, a terminal in the communication system is configured to send and a receiver in the network infrastructure is configured to receive bursts containing pilot waveforms that include time spacing and/or phase changes between short sequences. The time spacing and/or phase changes can be selected to reduce out-of-phase autocorrelation and achieve robust performance.

A terminal is disclosed including a transmitter that transmits, in an uplink control channel, uplink control information including a 1-bit Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest-Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a positive Scheduling Request (SR) or a negative SR, and a processor that uses a cyclic shift based on a parameter according to higher layer signaling, and based on the uplink control information, in the transmission of the uplink control information, wherein an interval between two cyclic shifts, each based on two values of uplink control information including the positive SR and the 1-bit HARQ-ACK, is π, and an interval between two cyclic shifts, each based on two values of uplink control information including the negative SR and the 1-bit HARQ-ACK, is π. In other aspects, a radio communication method for a terminal is also disclosed.

According to some embodiments, a method for use in a user equipment (UE) of managing a listen-before-talk (LBT) contention window size comprises receiving scheduling for a current burst of contiguous uplink subframes. For each subframe the scheduling comprises an associated hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier and a new data indicator (NDI). The method determines a reference subframe based on a previously-scheduled burst of contiguous uplink subframes. The reference subframe is associated with a reference HARQ process identifier. When the UE determines the HARQ process identifier associated with a subframe of the current scheduled burst of contiguous uplink subframes matches the reference HARQ process identifier and the NDI indicates new data, the method resets the LBT contention window. When the reference HARQ process identifier matches, but the associated NDI indicates a retransmission, or the HARQ process identifier does not match, the method increments the LBT contention window.

The present disclosure provides a method and a device in a base station used for Unlicensed Spectrum. The base station first transmits K1 radio signals in a reference time window and then receives K1 HARQ feedbacks, and performs Q1 energy detections respectively in Q1 time sub-pools on a first frequency sub-band; the K1 HARQ feedbacks are respectively used for determining whether the K1 radio signals are correctly received; a first radio signal is a radio signal of the K1 radio signals, the first radio signal carries part of bits comprised by a first bit block; a first HARQ feedback is used for determining whether the first radio signal is correctly received, HARQ feedback(s) other than the first HARQ feedback among the K1 HARQ feedbacks is(are) used for determining the Q1 time sub-pools. The present disclosure increases the chance of access to Unlicensed Spectrum and the utilization ratio of spectrum resources.

A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may be configured to transmit uplink control information such as Hybrid Automatic Retransmission Request (HARQ) Acknowledgement or Negative Acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) using a sequence. The HARQ ACK/NACK may comprise one bit or two bits of information, and the WTRU may use a cyclic shift of the sequence to transmit the HARQ ACK/NACK. The WTRU may use different cyclic shifts of the sequence to transmit different HARQ ACK/NACK values and the cyclic shifts may be separated from each other in a manner to facilitate the transmissions. The WTRU may be further configured to receive, from a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), an indication of a resource block for transmitting the HARQ ACK/NACK.

The present invention pertains to a terminal device, which, when ARQ is used for communication that uses an uplink unit band and a plurality of downlink unit bands associated with the uplink unit band, and when a transmission mode that supports up to 2 TB in a PCell is set in the terminal, is capable of reducing the amount of signaling from a base station while eliminating a lack of PUCCH resources when semi-permanent scheduling (SPS) is used in the PCell. A control unit in this device selects one value among values obtained by adding 1 to four PUCCH resource indexes, which have been preset for PUCCH resource 1 by the base station, on the basis of values for transmission power control information (TPC command for PUCCH) in a PDCCH, for which notification has been received at the start of SPS.

The present specification suggests a method for transmitting an uplink channel in a wireless communication system and a device supporting same. More particularly, a method for transmitting, by a terminal, a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a wireless communication system, comprises the steps of: receiving a physical uplink shared channel (PDSCH) from a base station; and transmitting, to the base station, the PUCCH including hybrid automatic retransmit request (HARQ)-acknowledgment (ACK) information for the PDSCH, wherein the PDSCH includes a first PDSCH and a second PDSCH, and the transmission power of the PUCCH is determined on the basis of a priority between the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH and/or a bit configuration of the HARQ-ACK information.
