A method and network node operable to perform a method of controlling a carrier configuration of a network node in a multi-carrier wireless telecommunication network. The multi-carrier wireless telecommunications network comprises a plurality of network nodes operable to simultaneously transmit and receive signals on more than one radio frequency carrier within a sector of the telecommunications network. The method comprises the steps of:
monitoring an indication data traffic received over a predetermined time period on each carrier to determine whether the data traffic received over the time period meets a predetermined set of conditions,
transmitting a request to deactivate each carrier determined to meet the conditions;
monitoring for receipt of a positive response to the request and implementing deactivation for each carrier for which a positive response is received. |
