Apparatus and method for transmitting ACK/NACK in TDD system
First Claim
1. A method for transmitting an acknowledgement indicator (ACK/NACK) in a TDD system, the method comprising:
- receiving a component carrier (CC) configuration for a user equipment (UE) and a transmission mode of each CC;
selecting an ACK/NACK feedback mode based on overhead information for feedback in an uplink;
processing an ACK/NACK according to the selected feedback mode; and
transmitting the ACK/NACK in the uplink.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for transmitting an ACK/NACK in a TDD system. A component carrier (CC) configuration for a user equipment (UE) and a transmission mode of each CC are received. An ACK/NACK feedback mode is selected based on an overhead status for feedback in an uplink. An ACK/NACK is processed according to the selected feedback mode. And the ACK/NACK is transmitted in the uplink. The method provided by the present invention can avoid excessive overhead for feedback in uplink in various extreme circumstances while ensuring satisfying performances of downlinks under many configurations.
