1. A method, comprisingevaluating, at a network node and per communication endpoint at individual ones of user equipments, performance of carrier aggregation for the user equipments, the evaluating using throughput of individual ones of a primary connection and at least one activated secondary connection per communication endpoint aggregating one primary connection and at least one secondary connection, the evaluating comprisingdetermining, at the network node and per communication endpoint, a transmission volume, the transmission volume being a total transmission volume of both the primary connection and at least one activated secondary connection,determining, at the network node and per communication endpoint, a time with transmission data in a transmission buffer for each of the primary connection and the at least one activated secondary connection,determining, at the network node and per communication endpoint, a number of connections between the primary connection and at least one activated secondary connection for the determined time, andobtaining, at the network node and per communication endpoint, a transmission throughput for each of the primary connection and the at least one activated secondary connection, based on said transmission volume, the number of connections, and said time with transmission data in the transmission buffer for each of the primary connection and the at least one activated secondary connection.
