Evaluation of Throughput of Aggregated Connections
First Claim
1. A method, comprisingdetermining, per communication endpoint implementing carrier aggregation aggregating one primary connection and at least one secondary connection, a transmission volume with both the primary connection and at least one activated secondary connection,determining, per communication endpoint implementing carrier aggregation aggregating one primary connection and at least one secondary connection, a time with transmission data in a transmission buffer and additional to the primary connection at least one activated secondary connection, andobtaining, per communication endpoint, a transmission throughput with the primary connection and at least one activated secondary connection, based on said transmission volume and said time.

Abstract
There are provided measures for evaluation of throughput of carrier aggregated user equipments. Such measures exemplarily include determining, per communication endpoint implementing carrier aggregation aggregating one primary connection and at least one secondary connection, a transmission volume with at least one activated secondary connection, determining, per communication endpoint implementing carrier aggregation aggregating one primary connection and at least one secondary connection, a time with transmission data in a transmission buffer and at least one activated secondary connection, and obtaining, per communication endpoint, a transmission throughput with at least one activated secondary connection, based on said transmission volume and said time.
