A method for receiving an acknowledgement signal by a base station in a wireless communication system and a base station are provided. The method includes transmitting information associated with transmission of a periodic channel quality indication (CQI) signal in an operating bandwidth; receiving a dynamic acknowledgement signal by using a first frequency resource in response to transmission of a downlink data signal, wherein a resource block (RB) allocated for the dynamic acknowledgement signal is determined based on the transmitted information; and receiving a periodic acknowledgement signal by using a second frequency resource in response to transmission of a downlink data signal, wherein the second frequency resource is allocated between the first frequency resource and a third frequency resource allocated for the periodic CQI signal.
