Abstract:
1. A method for multiplexing and transmitting uplink control information (UCI) with uplink data in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: encoding a plurality of transport blocks (TBs) each containing the uplink data to generate a plurality of codewords (CWs); mapping each of the plurality of CWs to one or more layers; and transmitting the plurality of CWs mapped on the one or more layers through one or more antenna ports, wherein when UCI includes channel quality information (CQI), the encoding of the TBs comprises selecting only one TB from the plurality of TBs and multiplexing the CQI with the uplink data of the only one TB selected from the plurality of TBs, and wherein when the UCI includes a rank indicator (RI), the encoding of the TBs comprises multiplexing the RI with the uplink data of all the TBs.
