Abstract

A method and an apparatus for sending Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback information are provided. The User Equipment (UE) receives a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) sent by a base station, determines a number of downlink subframes corresponding to the HARQ-ACK feedback information sent in the PUSCH of each CC in the current uplink subframe, the Uplink (UL) Downlink Assignment Index (UL DAI) obtained from the UL Grant of the PDCCH, a sum of the number of PDSCH subframes received from a HARQ-ACK bundling window and a number of PDCCHs indicating the downlink SPS releasing, and a size of the HARQ-ACK bundling window, and sends HARQ-ACK feedback information of each CC via the PUSCH in the current uplink subframe. A number of bits of the HARQ-ACK feedback information of each CC is determined according to the number of the downlink subframes.
