Communication device, and retransmission control method
First Claim
1. A communication apparatus comprising:
- a physical HARQ indicator channel (PHICH) receiving section that, when receiving a PHICH including an ACK or NACK transmitted from another communication apparatus, does not receive the PHICH in units of communication in which the communication apparatus monitors an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH), but receives the PHICH in units of communication in which the communication apparatus does not monitor an E-PDCCH; and
a retransmission control section that controls whether to perform retransmission to the other communication apparatus, based on the received PHICH and assignment control information.

Abstract
Provided is a wireless communication device. A PHICH reception unit (206) determines whether a received signal in a PHICH region is an ACK signal or a NACK signal. When doing so, the PHICH reception unit (206) does not receive a PHICH in a subframe in which a terminal (200) monitors an E-PDCCH. A control signal reception unit (207) outputs a retransmission prompting signal to a signal allocation unit (210) when the signal outputted from the PHICH reception unit (206) is a NACK signal and when a UL grant was not detected. Meanwhile, when a UL grant was detected, the control signal reception unit (207) outputs the detected UL grant to the signal allocation unit (210). The signal allocation unit (210) maps the transmission signal in accordance with the retransmission prompting signal and the UL grant and transmits the transmission signal from a wireless transmission unit (211).

6. A retransmission control method comprising:
-
when a physical HARQ indicator channel (PHICH) including an ACK or NACK transmitted from a first communication apparatus is received, not receiving by a second communication apparatus, the PHICH in units of communication in which the second communication apparatus monitors an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH), but receiving by the second communication apparatus, the PHICH in units of communication in which the second communication apparatus does not monitor an E-PDCCH; and controlling whether to perform retransmission to the first communication apparatus, based on the received PHICH and assignment control information.

7. A communication apparatus comprising:
-
a physical HARQ indicator channel (PHICH) receiving section that, when receiving a PHICH including an ACK or NACK transmitted from another communication apparatus, does not receive a PHICH corresponding to a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) assigned by assignment control information on an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH), but receives a PHICH corresponding to a PUSCH assigned by assignment control information on a PDCCH; and a retransmission control section that controls whether to perform retransmission to the other communication apparatus, based on the received PHICH and assignment control information.

8. A retransmission control method comprising:
-
when a physical HARQ indicator channel (PHICH) including an ACK or NACK transmitted from a first communication apparatus is received, not receiving by a second communication apparatus, a PHICH corresponding to a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) assigned to the second communication apparatus by assignment control information on an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH), but receiving by the second communication apparatus, a PHICH corresponding to a PUSCH assigned to the second communication apparatus by assignment control information on a PDCCH; and controlling whether to perform retransmission to the first communication apparatus, based on the received PHICH and assignment control information.
