- MMSFN multimedia broadcast single frequency network
- the RN In in-band relay mode operating in the same frequency band as the BS-RN link (ie backhaul link) and the RN-UE link (ie RN access link), the RN receives signals from the BS and sends signals to the UE. Or vice versa, the RN's transmitter and receiver cause interference with each other.

- the RN or BS may set any subframe as an MBSFN subframe and set up a backhaul link in the MBSFN subframe (fake MBSFN method).
- the RN may configure a backhaul link using the PDSCH region of the subframe.

- ACK / determined by PUCCH resources (cyclic shift, CS) and orthogonal cover sequence (OC) used for transmission of PUCCH carrying PDSCH transmission success or failure
- a NACK or SR (scheduling request resource) is configured by a higher layer signal (eg, an RRC signal). If the PUCCH resource is configured by the RRC signal, it is difficult to change the resource configuration at any time. For this reason, in a wireless communication system including an RN system in which PUCCH resources are configured by higher layer signals, it is difficult to efficiently operate the PUCCH resources.
- the PDCCH resource carrying the e-PDCCH including the R-PDCCH is operated using an index separate from the CCE index applied to the normal PDCCH. That is, the PDCCH and the e-PDCCH are managed by different CCE indexes.
- a CCE associated with a PDCCH is referred to as a PDCCH CCE
- a CCE associated with an e-PDCCH is referred to as an e-PDCCH CCE
- the REs that can be used for e-PDCCH transmission in the PDSCH region are collected and grouped in units of CCE, so that the CCE index is sequentially. Suppose that is given by.
- the UE transmits an ACK / NACK for the e-PDCCH or the PDSCH corresponding to the e-PDCCH using the PUCCH resource associated with the CCE index 2; Since the CCE index 2 is only one of the local CCE indexes assigned to the e-PDCCH CCEs available for e-PDCCH transmission, the UE may use the PDCCH CCEs and e-P available for PDCCH transmission in a specific cell. It is unknown whether the second CCE corresponds to which index among common CCE indices assigned to all e-PDCCH CCEs available for PDCCH transmission.
- the UE does not know clearly which PRB the corresponding e-PDCCH CCE is mapped to. That is, even though the PDCCH and the e-PDCCH are transmitted on a CCE having the same CCE index, since the CCE of the PDCCH and the CCE of the e-PDCCH mean different CCEs, the dynamic allocation of PUCCH resources using the resources of the e-PDCCH There is a problem that it is difficult to integrate and operate in the existing rules that link the CCE index of the PDCCH to the ACK / NACK resources.

- PUCCH resources starting from N PUCCH offset and up to N e-PUCCH offset may be linked with PDCCH CCEs.
- N e-PUCCH offset sufficiently far from N PUCCH offset should be set, when less dynamic ACK / NACK resources associated with PDCCH are used, as shown in FIG. 12 (b), N PUCCH Unused resources among the ACK / NACK PUCCH resources set by the offset and the N e-PUCCH offset are wasted.

- Each RN monitors a reserved R-PDCCH resource region, i.e., an R-PDCCH search space (N R-PDCCH VRB VRB collections) to check whether its own R-PDCCH exists. Monitoring the R-PDCCH resources includes blind decoding the R-PDCCH candidates.
- each RN detects an R-PDCCH indicated to it, each RN performs operations (eg, downlink reception and uplink transmission) according to the DCI of the R-PDCCH.
- the DCI (eg, DL grant, UL grant) transmitted on the R-PDCCH is cross-interleaved and mapped to the R-PDCCH resource or to the R-PDCCH resource without cross-interleaving.

Determined by location That is, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the n R-PDCCH VRB value may be implemented to be mapped 1: 1 to the PUCCH resource, and RN / UE is n R-PDCCH VRB + RN / UE specific offset value. By using the unique PUCCH resource can be obtained. N PUCCH offset and N e-PUCCH offset described in FIG.

That is, by being mapped to the R-PDCCH VRB index (n R-PDCCH VRB) is n or n VRB PRB configured by n or n VRB PRB may be used as an index for a PUCCH resource allocation.
- PUCCH resources are reserved as many as the number of RBs configured for potential PUCCH transmission.
- a plurality of n VRBs or n PRBs may correspond to one PUCCH resource. That is, one aspect of the second embodiment of the present invention is to reduce the number of reserved resources by maintaining an N: 1 mapping form, so that N VRBs or PRBs are mapped to one PUCCH resource.
- N may be configured in advance or may be configured according to a communication situation.
- ACK / NACK resources need to be reserved. If there is no predetermined rule, there may be more than one R-PDCCH in the RBG, thereby causing multiple RNs to use the same ACK / NACK resource, resulting in a collision.

- the case where the aggregation unit of the search space is an RB is taken as an example.
- the aggregation unit of the search space may be a CCE. It is also possible for an aggregation unit to be set.
- one or more R-PDCCH / e-PDCCH may exist in the same RB or RBG, and thus PUCCH resource collision is expected.
- the BS may differently set a scrambling ID or antenna port used for decoding the R-PDCCH / e-PDCCH, and use the information for PUCCH resource allocation.
- the scrambling ID or antenna port used for decoding of the R-PDCCH / e-PDCCH may be dynamically indicated using a DCI format after a candidate is configured and provided to the UE in advance.
- mapping between each e-PDCCH CCE and an antenna port may be defined in one PRB.
- the mapping relationship between the e-PDCCH CCEs and the antenna ports in one PRB may be defined in one pattern, and when several patterns are defined, pattern information may be signaled to the RN / UE.
