An efficient uplink HARQ feedback channel resource allocation scheme is adopted for carrier aggregation in a multi-carrier LTE/LTE-A system. Two resource allocation schemes (e.g., explicit and hybrid) for HARQ ACK/NACK (A/N) are applied. Part of the resources is allocated based on explicit method via RRC configuration. Another part of the resources is allocated based on hybrid method via both RRC and implicit information carried by downlink schedulers. In an explicit method, the physical resource for A/N feedback information is determined based on a resource index in a DL scheduling grant. The DL grant corresponds to transport blocks over a configured CC. The resource index points to a physical resource from a set of candidate uplink A/N physical resources reserved for the CC. In an implicit method, the A/N physical resources are determined based on a logical address of the DL scheduling grant.
