Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A terminal is disclosed including a receiver that receives a downlink shared channel scheduled by downlink control information; and a processor that, when the terminal is configured with a semi-statically determined first codebook and only one downlink shared channel reception is scheduled in a primary cell, controls transmission of a transmission acknowledgement signal in response to the only one downlink shared channel reception, wherein the transmission acknowledgement signal is determined from a second codebook that is different from the first codebook and corresponds only to the only one downlink shared channel. In other aspects, a radio communication method for a terminal and a base station in communication with a terminal are also disclosed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A terminal comprising: a receiver that receives a downlink shared channel scheduled by downlink control information; and a processor that controls transmission of a transmission acknowledgement signal in response to the downlink shared channel reception, wherein, when the terminal is configured with a semi-statically determined codebook, the processor determines whether to use a first codebook or a second codebook as the codebook for the transmission acknowledgement signal, and wherein the first codebook is determined when a number of the downlink shared channel receptions in a time domain is greater than one, and the second codebook is determined when the number of the downlink shared channel receptions in the time domain is only one and the downlink shared channel is scheduled in a primary cell. 2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein, when using the second codebook, the processor controls transmission of the transmission acknowledgement signal by using a given physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource set. 3. A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising: receiving a downlink shared channel scheduled by downlink control information; controlling transmission of a transmission acknowledgement signal in response to the downlink shared channel reception; and when the terminal is configured with a semi-statically determined codebook, determining whether to use a first codebook or a second codebook as the codebook for the transmission acknowledgement signal, wherein the first codebook is determined when a number of the downlink shared channel receptions in a time domain is greater than one, and the second codebook is determined when the number of the downlink shared channel receptions in the time domain is only one and the downlink shared channel is scheduled in a primary cell. 4. A base station in communication with a terminal, the base station comprising: a transmitter that transmits to the terminal a downlink shared channel scheduled by downlink control information; and a receiver that receives from the terminal a transmission acknowledgement signal in response to the downlink shared channel reception, wherein, when the terminal is configured with a semi-statically determined codebook, whether to use a first codebook or a second codebook as the codebook for the transmission acknowledgement signal is determined, and wherein the first codebook is determined when a number of the downlink shared channel receptions in a time domain is greater than one, and the second codebook is determined when the number of the downlink shared channel receptions in the time domain is only one and the downlink shared channel is scheduled in a primary cell. 5. A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein: the terminal comprises: a receiver that receives a downlink shared channel scheduled by downlink control information; and a processor that controls transmission of a transmission acknowledgement signal in response to the downlink shared channel reception, wherein, when the terminal is configured with a semi-statically determined codebook, the processor determines whether to use a first codebook or a second codebook as the codebook for the transmission acknowledgement signal, and wherein the first codebook is determined when a number of the downlink shared channel receptions in a time domain is greater than one, and the second codebook is determined when the number of the downlink shared channel receptions in the time domain is only one and the downlink shared channel is scheduled in a primary cell, and the base station comprises: a transmitter that transmits to the terminal the downlink shared channel; and a receiver that receives from the terminal the transmission acknowledgement signal.
