1. A user equipment (UE) comprising:
a processor configured to receive resource allocation information associated with an uplink physical control channel, wherein the uplink physical control channel and a physical uplink shared channel have different resources;
the processor is further configured to send data over the physical uplink shared channel in assigned time intervals;
the processor is further configured, in a time interval that it is not sending information over the physical uplink shared channel, to send a signal over the uplink physical control channel based on the received resource allocation information, wherein the processor is further configured to transmit the signal over the uplink physical control channel between transmissions of data over the physical uplink shared channels within a frame; and
the processor is further configured to receive feedback information from a downlink control channel.
