Down to adopt embodiment a and embodiment b respectively the concrete executive mode of first kind of situation to be described in detail.
Embodiment a; In LTE FDD system; M=1; Be that UE need carry out the UCI feedback to the PDCCH that in a descending sub frame, receives in a sub-frame of uplink; In such cases; When execution in step 620, UE needs according to preset resource allocation information, and each the E-PDCCH cluster to system configuration confirms a corresponding PUCCH resource respectively;
For example, disposed N E-PDCCH cluster in the supposing the system, its numbering is respectively E-PDCCH-1; E-PDCCH-2 ..., E-PDCCH-N; Simultaneously, the numbering of corresponding PUCCH resource is respectively PUCCH-1, PUCCH-2; ...; PUCCH-N, so, if UE confirms in the E-PDCCH-n of descending sub frame, to exist the PDCCH transmission; What then UE confirmed PUCCH resource that this PDCCH transmission is corresponding is numbered PUCCH-n, wherein 1≤n≤N.Here, N a number of PUCCH resources PUCCH-1, PUCCH-2, ..., PUCCH-N entails
between each number can be the same or different from each other or in part, all the same; Further, the transmission format PUCCH resources can is 3GPPE-UTRA defined PUCCH? format? 1a/1b.
In the foregoing description a, the resource allocation information that UE receives from the base station can comprise the numbering of the corresponding PUCCH resource of each E-PDCCH cluster of system configuration, is specially:
Mode one, in resource allocation information, explicitly disposes a PUCCH resource to N E-PDCCH cluster of system configuration respectively; As, to any one E-PDCCH cluster, notify this E-PDCCH cluster the numbering of a pairing PUCCH resource.
So, when execution in step 620, UE can directly confirm the numbering of each each self-corresponding PUCCH resource of E-PDCCH cluster of system configuration according to the resource allocation information that obtains.
Mode two; In resource allocation information; Explicitly has disposed a PUCCH resource to an E-PDCCH cluster among N the E-PDCCH cluster, and confirms the PUCCH resource that other N-1 E-PDCCH cluster are corresponding based on a PUCCH resource that has disposed through presetting method.
For example, suppose explicit configuration in the resource allocation information first PUCCH resource be numbered x1, being numbered of the PUCCH resource that E-PDCCH cluster n is corresponding: x (n)=x1+ (n-1), wherein 1≤n≤N then;
Again for example; Suppose explicit configuration in the resource allocation information a PUCCH resource be numbered x1; Then the PUCCH resource that E-PDCCH cluster n is corresponding is numbered x (n)=x1+ (n-1) * Δ; Δ>1 wherein; 1≤n≤N; The value of Δ can be fixing or agreement, perhaps, also can be configured by the base station.
So; When execution in step 620; UE can confirm a corresponding PUCCH resource to an E-PDCCH cluster earlier according to the resource allocation information that obtains, and confirms each self-corresponding PUCCH resource of other N-1 E-PDCCH cluster according to an acquired PUCCH resource again.
Embodiment b: in LTE TDD system, M >=1, UE need carry out the UCI feedback to the PDCCH that in M descending sub frame, receives in same sub-frame of uplink, specifically as shown in table 1; In such cases; When execution in step 620; UE needs according to preset resource allocation information; N E-PDCCH cluster to system configuration; Confirm a PUCCH resource in each subframe in the M sub-frame respectively, i.e. respectively corresponding PUCCH resource in any one E-PDCCH cluster each subframe in the M sub-frame.
For example; Disposed N E-PDCCH cluster in the supposing the system; Its numbering is respectively E-PDCCH-1, E-PDCCH-2 ...; E-PDCCH-N; Simultaneously, suppose any one E-PDCCH cluster, be designated as E-PDCCH-n (1≤n≤N); The numbering of corresponding respectively PUCCH resource is followed successively by PUCCH-n-1 in each subframe in the M sub-frame; PUCCH-n-2 ..., PUCCH-n-M; Wherein, PUCCH-n-m (1≤n≤N, 1≤m≤M) represent the corresponding PUCCH resource of PDCCH that E-PDCCH-n transmits in the m sub-frame, so; If UE confirms in subframe m; In E-PDCCH-n, have the PDCCH transmission, then UE confirms that the corresponding PUCCH resource of this PDCCH transmission is PUCCH-n-m, wherein; 1≤n≤N, 1≤m≤M.
Here N * M a PUCCH resource numbers PUCCH-n-1, PUCCH-n-2, ..., PUCCH-nM entails
between each number can be the same or different from each other or in part, all the same; Further, the PUCCH resources, transport format can be 3GPP? E-UTRA defined PUCCH? format? 1a/1b.
On the other hand; For some TDD ascending-descending subframes configuration; The descending sub frame number of the required feedback of different sub-frame of uplink UCI is different; Promptly the M value for different sub-frame of uplink is different; For example; TDD UL-DL configuration 1 or 3 in the table 1, at this moment, network side can the maximum according to the corresponding a plurality of M values of different sub-frame of uplink dispose the corresponding PUCCH resource of E-PDCCH cluster in resource allocation information.
In the foregoing description b, the resource allocation information that UE receives from the base station can comprise the numbering of corresponding in each E-PDCCH cluster each subframe in the M sub-frame of a system configuration PUCCH resource, is specially:

Mode two; In resource allocation information; Explicitly is to the numbering that disposes a PUCCH resource in the sub-frame of N E-PDCCH cluster in the M sub-frame of system configuration respectively, and respectively based on the numbering of the N that has disposed the corresponding E-PDCCH cluster of PUCCH resource distribution PUCCH resource of correspondence in other M-1 sub-frame.
For example; N the E-PDCCH cluster that supposes explicit configuration in the resource allocation information in a sub-frame corresponding PUCCH resource be numbered x (n); Then n E-PDCCH cluster in the m sub-frame corresponding PUCCH resource be numbered x (n; M)=x (n)+(m-1); 1≤n≤N wherein, 1≤m≤M.
Again for example; N the E-PDCCH cluster that supposes explicit configuration in the resource allocation information in a sub-frame corresponding PUCCH resource be numbered x (n); Then n E-PDCCH cluster corresponding PUCCH resource sequence number in the m sub-frame is x (n; M)=x (n)+(m-1) * Δ; 1≤n≤N wherein, 1≤m≤M, Δ are positive integer; The value of Δ can be fixing or agreement, also can be configured by the base station.
So; When execution in step 620; UE can be according to the resource allocation information that obtains; The numbering of each self-corresponding PUCCH resource in the sub-frame of N E-PDCCH cluster in the M sub-frame of first definite system configuration respectively confirms that according to the numbering of acquired N PUCCH resource corresponding E-PDCCH cluster distinguishes the numbering of a corresponding PUCCH resource in other M-1 sub-frame again.

For example; Suppose the x1 that is numbered of explicitly in the resource allocation information for a PUCCH resource of first E-PDCCH cluster configuration; E-PDCCH cluster n being numbered of a corresponding PUCCH resource in subframe m then: x (n; M)=x1+ (m-1) * N+ (n-1); Perhaps, and x (n, m)=x1+ (n-1) * M+ (m-1); 1≤n≤N wherein, 1≤m≤M.
Again for example; Suppose the x1 that is numbered of explicitly in the resource allocation information for a PUCCH resource of first E-PDCCH cluster configuration; Then the PUCCH resource that the PDCCH of E-PDCCH cluster n in subframe m is corresponding is numbered x (n; M)=x1+ (m-1) * N* Δ 1+ (n-1) * Δ 2; Perhaps; X (n; M)=x1+ (n-1) * M* Δ 1+ (m-1) * Δ 2; Wherein 1 ,≤n≤N, 1≤m≤M; Δ 1 is a positive integer with Δ 2; The value of Δ 1 and Δ 2 can be fixing or agreement, also can be configured by the base station, and the value of Δ 1 and Δ 2 can be identical or different.
