Abstract:
Disclosed is a base station which transmits and retransmits to a terminal first and second downlink data in first and second component carriers, respectively, wherein a first configuration pattern of UL (uplink) and DL (downlink) subframes is set for the first component carrier and a second configuration pattern of UL and DL subframes is set for the second component carrier. The base station receives from the terminal in the first component carrier an ACK/NACK for the first and second downlink data received by the terminal, which stores retransmission data of the first and second downlink data in a soft buffer, wherein the soft buffer for the second downlink data is sized according to a maximum number of downlink HARQ retransmission processes executable in a reference configuration pattern of UL and DL subframes, and the reference configuration pattern is determined according to the first and second configuration patterns.

Claim (Index 9):
An integrated circuit, which, in operation, controls a process performed at a base station configured to communicate with a terminal, the integrated circuit comprising:\n transmission circuitry configured to transmit and retransmit first and second downlink data in first and second component carriers, respectively, wherein a first configuration pattern of UL (uplink) and DL (downlink) subframes is set for the first component carrier and a second configuration pattern of UL and DL subframes is set for the second component carrier; and reception circuitry configured to receive from the terminal in the first component carrier an ACK/NACK (acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement) for the first and second downlink data received by the terminal, which stores retransmission data of the first and second downlink data in a soft buffer, wherein the soft buffer for the second downlink data is sized according to a maximum number of downlink HARQ (hybrid automatic repeat request) retransmission processes executable in a reference configuration pattern of UL and DL subframes, the maximum number of downlink HARQ retransmission processes is determined according to the reference configuration pattern, and the reference configuration pattern is determined according to the first and second configuration patterns.
