Abstract
A communication method by a user equipment (UE) is described. The method includes receiving, from a base station, system information including a first radio resource control (RRC) parameter, wherein the first RRC parameter provides a cell-specific physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource set and the cell-specific PUCCH resource set includes one or more PUCCH resources; and receiving a PDCCH with a DCI format scheduling a PDSCH; and transmitting, on a PUCCH resource included in the cell-specific PUCCH resource set, a PUCCH with HARQ-ACK information in response to the PDSCH received, wherein whether or not to transmit the PUCCH using frequency hopping is determined based on one, more or all of a first DCI field of the DCI format, RRC parameter(s) and a predefined rule.
