TECHNIQUES FOR ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION OF RESOURCES CONFIGURED ACROSS MULTIPLE COMPONENT CARRIERS

Abstract:

Techniques and devices for wireless communications are described to support communication over multiple component carriers using configured resources. A base station may identify a resource configuration for one or more sets of configured resources for communication with a user equipment (UE) and may indicate the resource configuration to the UE. The base station may transmit a downlink control message to the UE that includes a field to indicate one or more sets of resources that are to be activated or deactivated. The UE may receive the downlink control message and, based on the downlink control message, may identify the one or more indicated sets of resources. The UE may determine, based on the downlink control message, whether the one or more sets of resources is activated or deactivated. The UE and the base station may communicate based on the one or more activated or deactivated sets of resources.
