A network node, user equipment, and corresponding methods can support non-contiguous cell configuration of the downlink in at least one frequency band of a telecommunications system. The network node configures cells for non-contiguous downlink operations based on a signal received from a user equipment. The signal comprises information about the user equipment's radio access capability in non-contiguous downlink operation, including: a first indication that indicates the maximum number of cells supported by the user equipment; a second indication that indicates the maximum gap bandwidth between cells supported by the user equipment; and a third indication that indicates whether the user equipment supports an equal number of cells, or a different number of cells, on each side of a gap between the maximum number of cells. |
