Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a user equipment (UE) from a base station, information indicating a first transmission bandwidth (BW) within a total transmission BW wherein the first transmission BW is smaller than or equal to a maximum transmission BW and the maximum transmission BW is smaller than the total transmission BW,switching, by the UE, a transmission carrier frequency to the first transmission BW, andtransmitting, by the UE, signaling in the first transmission BW.

Abstract
One or more embodiments provide a method implemented in a user equipment (UE) used in a wireless communications system. The method includes transmitting an indication to a base station that the UE is capable of transmitting on a single uplink carrier frequency and downlink carrier aggregation. The method also includes receiving an uplink carrier frequency switching pattern from the base station. The method also includes switching uplink carrier frequencies based on the uplink carrier frequency switching pattern.
