Abstract:
1. A method for, at a user equipment (UE), transmitting ACK/NACK (Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement) in a wireless communication that supports carrier aggregation, the method comprising: receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) indicated by the PDCCH; and transmitting ACK/NACK for the PDSCH through a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), wherein a PUCCH format for transmitting the ACK/NACK is configured in consideration of a number of aggregated carriers, wherein if the number of aggregated carriers is 1, a first PUCCH format is configured for transmitting the ACK/NACK, and if the number of aggregated carriers is 2 or greater, a second PUCCH format is configured for transmitting the ACK/NACK, and wherein the first PUCCH format uses a sequence generated by a root sequence and a cyclic shift for transmitting the ACK/NACK, and the second PUCCH format uses discrete Fourier transform (DFT) for transmitting the ACK/NACK, wherein a resource for the first PUCCH format is linked with an index of a control channel element (CCE) that constitutes the PDCCH, and a resource for the second PUCCH format is indicated by the PDCCH.
