Abstract

A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) signal including information used for configuring the UE to monitor physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates either for a downlink control information (DCI) format 0_1 and a DCI format 1_1 or a first DCI format and a second DCI format. The UE also includes transmitting circuitry configured to perform a transmission on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). In a case that the PUSCH is scheduled by using the second DCI format, a first hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) and a second HARQ-ACK are multiplexed on the PUSCH. The number of resources for the first HARQ-ACK and the number of resources for the second HARQ-ACK are respectively determined.
