Abstract  Abstract

A method of managing TA functionality for a communication device of a wireless communication system which supports carrier aggregation that multiple component carriers are aggregated to support wider transmission bandwidth is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a RRC message indicating a usage of a timing advance command for each of a plurality of component carriers configured to the communication device, from a cell in a network of the wireless communication system, when the timing advance command has been received from the cell for each of the plurality of component carriers, applying the timing advance functionality corresponding to each of the plurality of component carriers, for updating a timing advance value for each of the plurality of component carriers, and when updating the timing advance value for each of the plurality of component carriers, starting or restarting a time alignment timer for each of the plurality of component carriers.
