METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ACTIVATING AND DEACTIVATING SECONDARY COMPONENT CARRIER IN CARRIER AGGREGATION

摘要

The present invention relates to communication technology. Disclosed are a method and device for activating and deactivating a secondary component carrier (SCC) in carrier aggregation. When the cache data volume reported by an RLC reaches an activation data volume threshold, increasing the count value of an SCC activation counter instead of directly activating an SCC; when determining that a monitor condition is met, and if the ratio of the count value of the SCC activation counter and the report times of the RLC reaches a set activation threshold, then indicating that the cache data volumes reported for multiple times all reach the activation data volume threshold, and then activating the SCC, thus avoiding multiple activations and deactivations during a short time, and improving SCC rate stability.

1. A method of activating a Secondary Component Carrier, SCC, in carrier aggregation, comprising:
Media Access Control, MAC, monitoring a cache data volume reported each time by Radio Link Control, RLC, and when the cache data volume reaches an activation data volume threshold, increasing a count value of an SCC activating counter; and when a monitoring requirement is met and a ratio of the count value of the SCC activating counter and a value of reported times of the RLC reaches a preset activating threshold, activating the SCC.
