Controlling carrier agglomeration settings of user equipment using extended multimedia broadcast multicast services

摘要

A method is provided for operating a wireless device in a wireless communication network. The method includes determining a carrier aggregation (CA) configuration for a wireless device to receive eMBMS data on multiple carriers of a dedicated mode type and / or a mixed mode type. The CA settings include pre-defined rules defining one or more acceptable characteristics for at least a portion of the plurality of carriers, the ability of the wireless device to receive and decode eMBMS data on the plurality of carriers, The determination is based at least in part on at least one of the predefined sets of possible CA settings. The method includes configuring the determined CA settings at the wireless device and performing one or more operational tasks under the configured CA settings. [Selection diagram] Fig. 1
