FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: method and apparatus employ a repetition factor to determine how many times acknowledgement should be repeated in response to receiving a first data transmission, selecting an acknowledgement transmission (ACK TX) pattern. The ACK TX pattern comprises resource information of a plurality of blocks used for transmitting the first acknowledgement, and transmitting, repeatedly, the acknowledgement according to the ACK TX pattern.
EFFECT: high reliability of transmission with acknowledgement of successful and unsuccessful reception using a repetition scheme, which uses an efficient transmission pattern on frequency and time for the said transmission in order to improve output of the wireless communication system.
