receiving, from the base station, a downlink control channel; determining the plural slots for the repetition of the PUCCH transmission starting from a first slot indicated by the downlink control channel, based on slot format information per slot; and transmitting, to the base station, a PUCCH over the determined plural slots, wherein the PUCCH transmission according to the first PRB and the second PRB is identical at each of the determined plural slots, and wherein the PUCCH transmission in each of the determined plural slots has a same number of consecutive symbols for the PUCCH identified based on the downlink control channel. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the slot format information is configured by a semi-static signalling. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the downlink control channel is for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and wherein hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement information for the PDSCH is transmitted on the PUCCH. ### Claim 4 A method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: transmitting, to a terminal, physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration information including information on a number of plural slots for repetition of a PUCCH transmission, information on an index of a first physical resource block (PRB), and information on an index of a second PRB; transmitting, to the terminal, a downlink control channel; and receiving, from the terminal, a PUCCH over the plural slots, wherein the plural slots are determined based on slot format information per slot, starting from a first slot indicated by the downlink control channel, wherein the PUCCH transmission according to the first PRB and the second PRB is identical at each of the determined plural slots, and wherein the PUCCH transmission in each of the determined plural slots has a same number of consecutive symbols for the PUCCH identified based on the downlink control channel. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein the slot format information is configured by a semi-static signaling. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein the downlink control channel is for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and wherein hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement information for the PDSCH is transmitted on the PUCCH. ### Claim 7 A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising: a transceiver; and a controller coupled with the transceiver and configured to: receive, from a base station via the transceiver, physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration information including information on a number of plural slots for repetition of a PUCCH transmission, information on an index of a first physical resource block (PRB), and information on an index of a second PRB, receive, from the base station via the transceiver, a downlink control channel, determine the plural slots for the repetition of the PUCCH transmission starting from a first slot indicated by the downlink control channel, based on slot format information per slot, and transmit, to the base station via the transceiver, a PUCCH over the determined plural slots, wherein the PUCCH transmission according to the first PRB and the second PRB is identical at each of the determined plural slots, and wherein the PUCCH transmission in each of the determined plural slots has a same number of consecutive symbols for the PUCCH identified based on the downlink control channel. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The terminal of claim 7, wherein the slot format information is configured by a semi-static signalling. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The terminal of claim 7, wherein the downlink control channel is for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and wherein hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information for the PDSCH is transmitted on the PUCCH. ### Claim 10 A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising: a transceiver; and a controller coupled with the transceiver and configured to: transmit, to a terminal via the transceiver, physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration information including information on a number of plural slots for repetition of a PUCCH transmission, information on an index of a first physical resource block (PRB), and information on an index of a second PRB, transmit, to the terminal via the transceiver, a downlink control channel, and receive, from the terminal via the transceiver, a PUCCH over the plural slots wherein the plural slots are determined based on slot format information per slot, starting from a first slot indicated by the downlink control channel, wherein the PUCCH transmission according to the first PRB and the second PRB is identical at each of the determined plural slots, and wherein the PUCCH transmission in each of the determined plural slots has a same number of consecutive symbols for the PUCCH identified based on the downlink control channel. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The base station of claim 10, wherein the slot format information is configured by a semi-static signalling. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The base station of claim 10, wherein the downlink control channel is for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and wherein hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information for the PDSCH is transmitted on the PUCCH.
