Abstract
Re-establishment methods and control apparatuses for causing performance of the methods is disclosed. In a method, when data is communicated on a configured set of component carriers, a trigger for connection re-establishment is detected. At least one component carrier in the configured set is identified, the component carrier being such that it can be used for connection re-establishment. Connection re-establishment is then requested through the at least one identified component carrier.

45. A method comprising:
-
communicating with a communication device on a configured set of component carriers comprising a primary component carrier and at least one secondary component carrier; receiving from the communication device a request for connection re-establishment through a secondary component carrier of the configured set;
accepting the request; andcontinuing communications with the communications device on re-established component carriers of the configured set. - View Dependent Claims (46, 47, 48)

- 49. A control apparatus for a communication device adapted for communications on a configured set of component carriers, the control apparatus being configured to trigger a connection re-establishment, identify at least one component carrier in the configured set that can be used for the connection re-establishment, and request for connection re-establishment through the at least one identified component carrier.
- 53. A control apparatus for a station adapted for communications with a communication device on configured set of component carriers comprising a primary component carrier and at least one secondary component carrier, the control apparatus being configured to process a request for connection re-establishment, the request being received through a secondary component carrier of the configured set, to accept the request, and to cause continuation of the communications on re-established component carriers of the configured set.
