DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, RELATED BASE STATION AND USER EQUIPMENT
First Claim
1. A method for transmitting data between a base station of a radio_communication network and a User Equipment, UE, by using multiple Component Carriers, CCs, the method comprising:
- transmitting, on a Primary CC, PCC, an activation/deactivation command to activate/deactivate a Secondary CC, SCC, from the base station to the UE;
after transmission of said activation/deactivation command, delaying transmission of data on the SCC between the base station and the UE by a predetermined delay, the predetermined delay being set to include a time period needed for a UE to perform an RF retuning as a result of an activation/deactivation command.

Abstract
Method for transmitting data between a base station (310) of a radiocommunication network and a User Equipment (320), UE, by using multiple Component Carriers, CCs. The method comprising: transmitting, on a Primary CC, PCC, an activation/deactivation command to activate/deactivate a Secondary CC, SCC, from the base station to the UE; and after transmission of said activation/deactivation command, delaying transmission of data on the SCC between the base station and the UE by a predetermined delay, the predetermined delay being set to include a time period needed for a UE to perform an RF retuning as a result of an activation/deactivation command.
