Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for transmitting uplink data, user equipment, and a base station. The method includes: when user equipment UE correctly receives, in a subframe n, downlink control signaling used for instructing the UE to transmit a physical uplink shared channel PUSCH, determining, by the UE according to the downlink control signaling and a subframe bundling configuration, a bundled subframe for transmitting the PUSCH, where the subframe bundling configuration includes a quantity of bundled subframes; and transmitting the PUSCH in the bundled subframe. In the embodiments of the present invention, a bundled subframe is introduced, which increases scheduling resources for a PUSCH, and enhances coverage performance of a signal.
