Claim:
1. A method for transmitting uplink control information, comprising: determining, on the basis of high layer signalling and/or a predefined rule, uplink control information to be transmitted; and transmitting, on a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), the determined uplink control information; wherein the determining, on the basis of the predefined rule, the uplink control information to be transmitted comprises: determining, on the basis of at least one of the following rules, the uplink control information to be transmitted: Rule I: when a sum of a number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information and a number of bits of the CSI is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information, and when the sum of the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information and the number of bits of the CSI is less than the preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information and the CSI; Rule II: when the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information is greater than the number of bits of the CSI, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information, and when the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information is less than or equal to the number of bits of the CSI, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information and the CSI; Rule III: when a ratio of the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information to the number of bits of the CSI is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information, and when the ratio of the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information to the number of bits of the CSI is less than the preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information and the CSI; Rule IV: when the number of bits of the CSI is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information, and when the number of bits of the CSI is less than the preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information and the CSI; and Rule V: when the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information, and when the number of bits of the ACK/NACK response information is less than the preset threshold value, it is determined that the uplink control information to be transmitted is the ACK/NACK response information and the CSI.
