Abstract:
1. A method of transmitting uplink control information from a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving, from a base station (BS), first transmission timing information for transmitting first control information associated with one or more first downlink component carriers; receiving, from the BS, an additional time offset, wherein the first transmission timing information includes a transmission period and a time offset for transmitting the first control information; determining second transmission timing information for transmitting second control information associated with one or more second downlink component carriers by modifying the time offset included in the first transmission timing information based upon the additional time offset; and transmitting, to the BS, the second control information associated with the one or more second downlink component carriers in dependence upon the second transmission timing information, wherein the second transmission timing information includes the transmission period and the modified time offset for transmitting the second control information.
