Secondary Cell Synchronization for Carrier Aggregation |
摘要 |
A carrier aggregation application method is provided of attaining time synchronization to a secondary cell for a wireless communication device usable in a cellular communication network. The method comprises, if a time reference of the secondary cell is unknown to the wireless communication device: setting a preliminary time reference of the secondary cell to equal a time reference of a primary cell of the carrier aggregation application; performing a synchronization signal based detection of the time reference of the secondary cell based on the preliminary time reference and one or more synchronization signals transmitted in the secondary cell; performing preliminary time reference based channel state measurements of the secondary cell based on the preliminary time reference and one or more reference signals transmitted in the secondary cell; setting, based on the synchronization signal based detection, a value of a channel quality indicator to either a nominal value or a value based on the preliminary time reference based channel state measurements; and transmitting a channel state information report comprising the channel quality indicator to the cellular communication network. An arrangement for a wireless communication device usable in a cellular communication network, adapted to attain time synchronization to a secondary cell of a carrier aggregation application is also disclosed. A modem comprising the arrangement and wireless communication device comprising the arrangement are also disclosed. |
