Systems and Methods to Enhance Radio Link Performance in a Multi-Carrier Environment

摘要

Described herein are systems and methods to enhance radio link performance in a multi-carrier environment. A method may comprise sending, by an upper level layer of a wireless device, user data in a packet for transmission, wherein the packet includes an indication of a level of priority of the packet, receiving, by a media access control (“MAC”) layer of the wireless device, the packet for transmission including the indication of the level of priority provided by the upper level layer, identifying, by the MAC layer, a reliability of each of a plurality of component carriers, and selecting, by the MAC layer, one of the component carriers on which to transmit the packet, wherein the selecting is based on the level of priority of the packet and the reliability of the one of the component carriers.
