Claim:
1. A method of transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), a control signal in a wireless communication system, the control signal being transmitted in a subframe on an uplink control channel for a channel quality indicator (CQI), the subframe consisting of two consecutive slots, each slot consisting of five data orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols and two reference signal (RS) OFDM symbols at second and sixth positions between first and seventh positions, in the slot in a time domain, the method comprising: mapping the CQI using quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) to the five data OFDM symbols; mapping two RSs to the two RS OFDM symbols; when the UE transmits a 1-bit acknowledgment/non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal in the subframe, transmitting, by the UE, the five data OFDM symbols and the two RS OFDM symbols on the uplink control channel in each slot in the subframe, the ACK/NACK signal being multiplexed with the RS 01-DM symbol at the sixth position; and when no ACK/NACK signal is transmitted in the subframe, transmitting, by the UE, the five data OFDM symbols and the two RS OFDM symbols on the uplink control channel in each slot in the subframe.
