TECHNIQUES FOR GROUPING MULTIPLE SERVING COMPONENT CARRIERS

Abstract:

Techniques for grouping multiple serving component carriers (CCs) are disclosed. In one example, a frequency separation that defines a frequency range from a lower bound frequency to a higher bound frequency for each CC group of a plurality of CC groups may be determined, wherein a difference between the lower bound frequency and the higher bound frequency of each CC group may be equal to the frequency separation. A frequency of a first CC from a collection of CCs may be determined. The first CC may be assigned to a first CC group, of the plurality of CC groups, wherein the first CC group may have a frequency range that includes the frequency of the first CC.
