Abstract:
1. A method for transmitting uplink signals, the method comprising: transmitting, by a user equipment, periodic control information on a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) at a predetermined period; and multiplexing uplink data with the periodic control information and transmitting the multiplexed uplink data on a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) when the user equipment operates in normal transmission mode where the uplink data is transmitted using a subframe and when a time for transmission of the periodic control information collides with a time for transmission of the uplink data, and dropping the transmission of the periodic control information and transmitting the uplink data without multiplexing the periodic control information on the PUSCH when the user equipment operates in subframe bundling transmission mode where the uplink data is transmitted using a predetermined number of consecutive subframes and when the time for transmission of the periodic control information collides with the time for transmission of the uplink data.
