Patent Description:
Radio frames in Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems and LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems include frame structures in a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) mode and a Time Division Duplex (TDD) mode. <FIG> is a schematic diagram of a frame structure in related LTE/LTE-A FDD systems. As shown in <FIG>, a radio frame of <NUM> consists of twenty slots numbered <NUM>~<NUM>, each having a length of <NUM>, slots 2i and <NUM>i+<NUM> forming a subframe i with a length of <NUM>. <FIG> is a schematic diagram of a frame structure in related LTE/LTE-A TDD systems. As shown in <FIG>, a radio frame of <NUM> consists of two half frames each having a length of <NUM>, a half frame includes <NUM> subframes each having a length of <NUM>, and a subframe i is defined as <NUM> slots 2i and <NUM>i+<NUM> each having a length of <NUM>.

In the two frame structures described above, for normal cyclic prefix (CP), one slot contains seven symbols each having a length of <NUM>, wherein the CP length of the first symbol is <NUM>, and the length of each of the remaining <NUM> symbols is <NUM>; for extended cyclic prefix, one slot contains six symbols, the CP length of each of which is <NUM>. The supported uplink and downlink configuration is shown as in Table <NUM>.

For each subframe in one radio frame, "D" represents a subframe dedicated to downlink transmission, "U" represents a subframe dedicated to uplink transmission, "S" represents a special subframe which contains three portions, Downlink Pilot Time Slot (DwPTS), Guard Period (GP) and Uplink Pilot Time Slot (UpPTS).

In an LTE system, an HARQ process refers to that when a sending end needs to transmit data, a receiving end allocates information required in transmission, such as frequency domain resources, packet information, etc., to the sending end through downlink signaling. The sending end sends data according to the information while storing the data into its own buffer for retransmission. The receiving end detects the data after receiving the data, and sends an acknowledgement (ACK) to the sending end if the data are received correctly. The sending end clears the buffer memory, which is used in this transmission, after receiving the ACK, and ends this transmission. If the data are not received correctly, then a non-acknowledgement (NACK) is sent to the sending end and packets which are not received correctly are stored into the buffer memory of the receiving end. After the sending end has received the NACK information, it extracts the data from its own buffer memory and retransmits the data in a specific packet format in corresponding subframes and corresponding frequent domain positions. The retransmitted packets, after being received by the receiving end, are combined with the packets which are not received correctly and are detected once more. The above process is repeated until the data are received correctly or a retransmission times exceeds the maximum transmission times threshold.

In an LTE/LTE-A system, there is following specification regarding to PDSCH scheduling in downlink HARQ, i.e., regarding to scheduling of downlink HARQ: UE detects the PDCCH on subframe n and resolves the PDSCH of the current subframe according to information of the PDCCH.

In an LTE/LTE-A FDD system, there is the following timing rule regarding to the PUCCH corresponding to the HARQ-ACK of the PDSCH sent in the downlink HARQ, i.e., the following specification regarding to a timing relationship of the downlink HARQ: UE detects PDSCH transmission on subframe n or indicates the PDCCH of the downlink SPS release and transmits the corresponding HARQ-ACK response on subframe n+<NUM>. In an LTE/LTE-A TDD system, there is the following specification regarding to a timing relationship of the downlink HARQ: UE detects PDSCH transmission on subframe n-k or indicates the PDCCH of the downlink SPS release and transmits the corresponding HARQ-ACK response on uplink subframe n, wherein k belongs to K, values of which are as shown in table <NUM>.

In an LTE system, for example a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) system, because of a one-to-one correspondence between uplink and downlink subframes, the UE will feed back the ACK/NACK response information of <NUM> bit when the PDSCH contains only one transmission block, and the UE will feed back the ACK/NACK response information of <NUM> bits when the PDSCH contains two transmission blocks, and the UE will send the ACK/NACK response information of <NUM>/<NUM> bit using a PUCCH format 1a/1b. In a Time Division Duplex (TDD) system, because there is no one-to-one correspondence between uplink and downlink subframes, the ACK/NACK response information corresponding to a plurality of downlink subframes will be sent on the PUCCH of one uplink subframe, wherein a set of downlink subframes corresponding to the uplink subframe form a "bundling window". There are two methods for sending the ACK/NACK response information. One is bundling method, the key idea of which is to perform logical AND operation on the ACK/NACK response information, which is required to be fed back in the uplink subframe, of a transmission block corresponding to each of the downlink subframes. If there are <NUM> transmission blocks in one downlink subframe, UE will feed back the ACK/NACK response information of <NUM> bits, and if there is only one transmission block in each of the subframes, UE will feed back the ACK/NACK response information of <NUM> bit, and the UE will send the ACK/NACK response information of <NUM>/<NUM> bit using the PUCCH format 1a/1b. The other method is multiplexing with channel selection method, the key idea of which is to use different PUCCHs and different modulation symbols on the channels to represent different feedback states of the downlink subframe, which is required to be fed back in the uplink subframe. If there are a plurality of transmission blocks in the downlink subframes, logical AND operation (spatial bundling) will be performed on the ACK/NACK information fed back by the plurality of transmission blocks of the downlink subframes and then channels selection will be performed, and the UE will send the ACK/NACK response information using the format 1b with channel selection.

The most obvious advantage of the LTE-A system over the LTE system is that carrier aggregation is introduced in the LTE-A system, i.e., bandwidths of the LTE system are aggregated to obtain a greater bandwidth. In the system where the carrier aggregation is introduced, the aggregated carrier is called as a component carrier (CC), or is called as a serving cell. Meanwhile, concepts of Primary Component Carrier/Cell (PCC/PCell) and Secondary Component Carrier/Cell (SCC/SCell) are proposed. A primary serving cell and secondary serving cell are at least included in a system where the carrier aggregation is performed, wherein the primary serving cell is always in an activation state and the PUCCH is defined to be transmitted only on the Pcell.

In an LTE-A carrier aggregation system, when the HARQ-ACK response information is sent on the PUCCH, two sending methods are defined, PUCCH format 1b with channel selection and PUCCH format <NUM>. For a UE which configures a plurality of serving cells, if the UE can support aggregation of only <NUM> serving cells at most, then the UE will send the HARQ-ACK using the PUCCH format 1b with channel selection when configuring the plurality of serving cells; if the UE can support aggregation of more than <NUM> serving cells, then when the UE configures the plurality of serving cells, a base station will further configure the UE through high layer signaling to determine whether the UE sends the HARQ-ACK response information using the PUCCH format 1b with channel selection or the PUCCH format <NUM>.

The related carrier aggregation technology is applied to only FDD serving cells or TDD serving cells. In subsequent versions, considering the FDD serving cells and TDD serving cells, when the FDD serving cells and TDD serving cells are aggregated, how to send uplink control information is one of problems required to be solved urgently. Otherwise, the aggregation of the FDD serving cells and TDD serving cells cannot be achieved.

The document <CIT> discloses techniques for communication control information for aggregated carriers; wherein the techniques include receiving one or more assignments for a plurality of aggregated carriers.

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method according to claim <NUM> for sending uplink control information and a user equipment according to claim <NUM> to solve the problem of sending the uplink control information when FDD serving cells and TDD serving cells are aggregated.

The technical scheme of the present application can solve the problem of sending the uplink control information when FDD serving cells and TDD serving cells are aggregated. Brief Description of Drawings.

The technical scheme of the present invention will be described in further detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The scope of protection of the invention is defined by the appended claims.

The present example provides a method for sending uplink control information comprising:.

In the method described above, various predefined rules may be chosen according to the type of the UE.

Preferably, when the UE has no ability of uplink carrier aggregation, the rule is that the uplink control information is transmitted in the uplink subframes of the primary serving cell. Or when the UE has the ability of uplink carrier aggregation, the rule is that signaling indicates that the uplink control information is sent in the uplink subframes of the FDD serving cell or the uplink subframes of the TDD serving cell.

In the method described above, the signaling configures various predefined rules.

Preferably, the used rules configured by the signaling are: a primary serving cell is the TDD serving cell, subframes N have both the uplink subframes of the FDD serving cell and the uplink subframes of the TDD serving cell, and when there is uplink control information to be sent in the subframes N, the UE sends the uplink control information in the uplink subframes of the TDD serving cell;.

In the method described above, the process in which the UE sends the uplink control information in the uplink subframes of the FDD serving cell and/or the uplink subframes of the TDD serving cell according to the predefined rule may refer to the following operations:.

When the UE sends the HARQ-ACK on the PUCCH or PUSCH corresponding to the determined uplink subframes, the process in which the uplink control information is sent is as follows:.

Specifically, when the HARQ-ACK corresponds to the PDSCH of one serving cell, the UE sends the HARQ-ACK in the determined uplink subframes using a PUCCH format 1a/1b.

When the UE sends the HARQ-ACK on the PUCCH corresponding to the determined uplink subframes and a configured sending manner is PUCCH format 1b with channel selection, a mapping table used by the PUCCH format 1b with channel selection is selected according to any one of the following.

(The scope of protection of the invention corresponds to the embodiment related to rule <NUM>. The other rules are examples that do not define the scope of protection of the invention.

M is max{MTDD, MFDD}, MFDD is the number of downlink subframes within a binding window determined by the FDD serving cell according to the timing relationship, and when MFDD=<NUM>, MTDD is the number of downlink subframes within a binding window determined by the TDD serving cell according to the timing relationship; when the HARQ-ACK corresponds only the PDSCH of the FDD serving cell, MTDD=<NUM>.

When the UE sends the HARQ-ACK on the PUCCH corresponding to the determined uplink subframes and the configured sending manner is PUCCH format <NUM>, the UE selects different sending manners according to different situations:.

When the HARQ-ACK corresponds to the PDSCH of one serving cell and the serving cell is not the primary serving cell, resources used when the UE sends with the PUCCH format 1a/1b are obtained by the following manners:.

The present invention will be further described in conjunction with specific application examples.

The TDD serving cell is the primary serving cell, the TDD serving cell determines the HARQ-ACK which needs to be sent according to the PDSCH and HARQ timing relationship corresponding to the TDD serving cell, and the FDD serving cell determines the HARQ-ACK which needs to be sent according to the PDSCH and HARQ timing relationship corresponding to the FDD serving cell. When subframes N have both uplink subframes of the FDD serving cell and uplink subframes of the TDD serving cell, the PUCCH corresponding to the HARQ-ACK is sent in the uplink subframes where the TDD serving cell is located; and when the subframes N have only uplink subframes of the FDD serving cell, the PUCCH corresponding to the HARQ-ACK is sent in the uplink subframes where the FDD serving cell is located.

a corresponding mapping table is selected according to the value of M and the primary serving cell, when M>=<NUM>, the mapping table corresponding to the TDD system is used, and when M=<NUM>, in a case that the FDD serving cell is the primary cell, the mapping table corresponding to the FDD system is used, and in a case that the TDD serving cell is the primary cell, the mapping table corresponding to the TDD system is used, wherein the mapping table comprises a mapping between HARQ-ACK responses and PUCCH transmissions, and is dependent on a number of transmission blocks of downlink subframes;
wherein, the M is max {MTDD, MFDD}, MFDD is a number of downlink subframes within a binding window determined by the FDD serving cell according to a Physical downlink Shared Channel, PDSCH, and HARQ-ACK timing relationship, and MTDD is a number of downlink subframes within a binding window determined by the TDD serving cell according to a PDSCH and HARQ-ACK timing relationship.
