The present invention discloses a method for determining a Physical Uplink Control Channel PUCCH resource for a user equipment and a corresponding user equipment, and a method for facilitating the determination of a PUCCH resource for a user equipment and a corresponding base station, wherein the PUCCH resource is used to transmit a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request HARQ feed back (ACK or NACK) of the user equipment with respect to its corresponding Physical Downlink Shared Channel PDSCH. In the present invention, an index value for a Control Channel Element CCE scheduled for the user equipment in an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel E-PDCCH is firstly acquired, and then based on the index value and a first parameter, the PUCCH resource used to transmit the HARQ feedback of the user equipment with respect to its corresponding PDSCH is determined, the first parameter representing a reference value that should be used when determining the PUCCH resource used to transmit the HARQ feedback of the user equipment with respect to its corresponding PDSCH, if scheduling the CCE for the user equipment in the E-PDCCH.
