Abstract:
Future LTE systems will support massive carrier aggregation that necessitates transmission of a large number of acknowledgement signals (HARQ-ACKs) in response to downlink data transmitted over multiple component carriers. Described herein are methods and apparatus for efficiently transmitting HARQ-ACK and periodic channel state information (P-CSI) bits over the PUCCH (physical uplink control channel).

Claim (Index 42):
A computer-readable medium comprising instructions to cause a user equipment (UE), upon execution of the instructions by processing circuitry of the UE, to:\n receive information elements (IEs) configuring first and second sets of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources for transmitting uplink control information (UCI), wherein each the first and the second set of PUCCH resources include a first and a second PUCCH format resource having different UCI capacities; wherein the processing circuitry and transceiver, when the UE is configured with more than five component carriers (CCs) and when UCI transmitted on PUCCH of a single uplink (UL) subframe includes hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) bits and/or periodic channel state information (P-CSI) bits, are to: transmit the HARQ-ACK bits and P-CSI bits if present using a selected PUCCH resource from the first set of PUCCH resources based on the total bits number of UCI payload, when the UCI includes either HARQ-ACK transmission only or a combination of HARQ-ACK bits and P-CSI bits; and transmit the P-CSI bits using a selected PUCCH resource from the second set of PUCCH resources based on the total bits number of UCI payload when the UCI does not include HARQ-ACK bits.
