Abstract:
A system and method to instruct a user equipment (UE) how Uplink Control Information (UCI) on a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) should be transmitted with carrier aggregation. A semi-static signaling of a UCI mapping bit (via a Radio Resource Control (RRC) parameter) is used by a base station such as an eNodeB to require the UE to transmit UCI using one of two pre-determined UCI transmission modes. The bit can be decided by the base station, considering, for example, the available bandwidth or quality of different Uplink Component Carriers (UL CCs) associated with the UE. This network-based solution allows the network to either configure a general rule of UCI transmission by the UE or to enforce the UCI transmission on the Uplink Primary cell (UL Pcell). Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used to construe the claims.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 4 , wherein the UCI mapping bit is used with Carrier Aggregation (CA), and wherein one of the following applies:\n in the absence of transmission of a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) from the UE in a current subframe on any Uplink Component Carrier (UL CC) associated with the UE, the value of the UCI mapping bit instructs the UE to transmit the UCI in the current subframe using a first Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) transmission scheme, wherein the value of the UCI mapping bit is either a first value or a second value that is different from the first value; in case of transmission of the PUSCH from the UE on an Uplink Primary Cell (UL Pcell) in the current subframe, the value of the UCI mapping bit instructs the UE to transmit the UCI in the current subframe using the PUSCH, wherein the value of the UCI mapping bit is either the first value or the second value; when the value of the UCI mapping bit is the first value and in case of transmission of the PUSCH from the UE in the current subframe on any UL CC associated with the UE except the UL Pcell, the following applies:\n the first value of the UCI mapping bit instructs the UE to transmit the UCI excluding aperiodic Channel Status Information (C SI) contained therein in the current subframe using the PUSCH based on a pre-determined rule, and \n the first value of the UCI mapping bit instructs the UE to transmit the UCI containing at least the aperiodic CSI in the current subframe using the PUSCH; and \n when the value of the UCI mapping bit is the second value and in case of transmission of the PUSCH from the UE in the current subframe on any UL CC associated with the UE except the UL Pcell, the second value of the UCI mapping bit instructs the UE to transmit the UCI in the current subframe using a second PUCCH transmission scheme.
