Techniques for transmitting control information in a wireless communication system are described. The system may support acknowledgement (ACK) channels and channel quality indicator (CQI) channels, which may have different target signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). The ACK and CQI channels from different user equipments (UEs) may be multiplexed on the same resource block. In one design, the transmit power of a CQI channel may be set to achieve a nominal target SNR for CQI when not multiplexed with the ACK channels and may be reduced to achieve a lower target SNR when multiplexed with the ACK channels. In another design, the transmit power of an ACK channel may be set to achieve a nominal target SNR for ACK when not multiplexed with the CQI channels and may be boosted to achieve a higher target SNR when multiplexed with the CQI channels. The CQI channel may randomly hop to mitigate performance degradation.
