1. A method for allocating resources for a scheduling request (SR), the method comprising:
transmitting an SR cycle period;
transmitting an SR subframe offset; and
transmitting an index value,
wherein the SR subframe offset and the index value determine a unique combination of cyclic shift, reference signal (RS) orthogonal cover, data orthogonal cover, and resource block (RB) number for a unique physical resource for the SR in a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH).
