METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUPPORTING A CONTROL PLANE AND A USER PLANE IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method for and apparatus for supporting a control plane (C-plane) and user plane (U-plane) in a wireless communication system supporting multiple carriers is provided. A wireless device receives a signal to initiate inter-frequency measurement from a macro cell, performs the inter-frequency measurement, and determines to configure a small cell for data transmission based on the inter-frequency measurement. And, this invention includes that a C-Plane and a U-Plane split over different carriers are existed and operated more accurately and efficiently.
