ASSIGNMENT OF COMPONENT CARRIERS IN DUAL CONNECTIVITY OPERATION

摘要

A method in a user equipment comprises receiving, from a network node, a request to configure a first component carrier at the user equipment for dual connectivity operation, and determining whether a total number of currently configured component carriers including the first component carrier associated with the request exceeds a threshold number of component carriers that the user equipment can use for dual connectivity operation. The method further comprises performing one or more component carrier related radio operations based at least in part on the determination of whether the total number of currently configured component carriers including the first component carrier associated with the request exceeds the threshold number of component carriers that the user equipment can use for dual connectivity operation.
