Abstract
In a wireless network supporting aggregation of uplink component carriers sounding reference signals SRS are transmitted ( 62) on an uplink UL primary component carrier. An activation command corresponding to an UL secondary component carrier SCC is received (64) in response to which the receiving transceiver determines (65) whether it has valid timing information for the UL SCC wherein valid timing information for the UL SCC indicates that the UL SCC is UL synchronized. In response to this determination transmission of SRS on the UL SCC is enabled (66) if the UL SCC is synchronized when SRS is configured for the UL SCC. Otherwise transmission of SRS on the UL SCC is prohibited (68) until the UL SCC is UL synchronized.

in response to said determining, and wherein the wireless transceiver has been provided with configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted, enabling transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC, if the uplink SCC is synchronized, and otherwise prohibiting transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC until the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized.', 'transmitting sounding reference signals (SRS) on an uplink primary component carrier to a base station; and', 'receiving an activation command corresponding to an uplink secondary component carrier (SCC) from the base station;', 'determining whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC, wherein valid timing information for the uplink SCC indicates that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized to the base station; and,', 'in response to said determining, and wherein the wireless transceiver has been provided with configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted, enabling transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC, if the uplink SCC is synchronized, and otherwise prohibiting transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC until the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein determining whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC comprises:
determining that the uplink SCC belongs to a pre-determined group of component carriers; and
determining that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized if any member of the group is uplink synchronized, and otherwise determining that the uplink SCC is not uplink synchronized.', 'determining that the uplink SCC belongs to a pre-determined group of component carriers; and', 'determining that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized if any member of the group is uplink synchronized, and otherwise determining that the uplink SCC is not uplink synchronized.

receiving timing information for at least one member of the pre-determined group; and,
in response to the timing information, enabling transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC when the wireless transceiver has been provided with the configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted.', 'receiving timing information for at least one member of the pre-determined group; and,', 'in response to the timing information, enabling transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC when the wireless transceiver has been provided with the configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted.
4. The method of claim 3, wherein the timing information is a timing advance command received in a MAC control element.
5. The method of claim 3, wherein said timing information is a timing advance command received in response to a random access procedure performed in response to a random access order for at least one member of the pre-determined group.
6. The method of claim 3, wherein said timing information is a timing advance command received in response to a terminal-initiated random access procedure.
7. The method of claim 1, wherein determining whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC comprises receiving a flag at the wireless transceiver, the flag indicating whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC.
8. A wireless transceiver of a radio access terminal for use in a wireless communication system that supports uplink carrier aggregation, the wireless transceiver comprising:
a radio circuit adapted to receive signals from a base station on at least one downlink carrier and to transmit signals on a plurality of uplink carriers to the base station, the uplink carriers including an uplink primary component carrier (PCC) and an uplink secondary component carrier (SCC); and
a processing circuit operatively connected to the radio circuit and adapted to:
transmit sounding reference signals (SRS) on the uplink PCC, using the radio circuit; and
receive an activation command corresponding to the uplink SCC, via the radio circuit;
in response to receiving the activation command, determine whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC, wherein valid timing information for the uplink SCC indicates that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized to the base station; and,
in response to said determining, and when the wireless transceiver has been provided with configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted, enable transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC, if the uplink SCC is synchronized, and otherwise prohibit transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC until the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized.', 'a radio circuit adapted to receive signals from a base station on at least one downlink carrier and to transmit signals on a plurality of uplink carriers to the base station, the uplink carriers including an uplink primary component carrier (PCC) and an uplink secondary component carrier (SCC); and', 'a processing circuit operatively connected to the radio circuit and adapted to:
transmit sounding reference signals (SRS) on the uplink PCC, using the radio circuit; and
receive an activation command corresponding to the uplink SCC, via the radio circuit;
in response to receiving the activation command, determine whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC, wherein valid timing information for the uplink SCC indicates that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized to the base station; and,
in response to said determining, and when the wireless transceiver has been provided with configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted, enable transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC, if the uplink SCC is synchronized, and otherwise prohibit transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC until the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized.', 'transmit sounding reference signals (SRS) on the uplink PCC, using the radio circuit; and', 'receive an activation command corresponding to the uplink SCC, via the radio circuit;', 'in response to receiving the activation command, determine whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC, wherein valid timing information for the uplink SCC indicates that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized to the base station; and,', 'in response to said determining, and when the wireless transceiver has been provided with configuration data by the base station indicating the SRS should be transmitted, enable transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC, if the uplink SCC is synchronized, and otherwise prohibit transmission of the SRS on the uplink SCC until the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized.
9. The wireless transceiver of claim 8, wherein the processing circuit is configured to determine whether the wireless transceiver has valid timing information for the uplink SCC by:
determining that the uplink SCC belongs to a pre-determined group of component carriers; and
determining that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized if any other member of the group is uplink synchronized, and otherwise determining that the uplink SCC is not synchronized.', 'determining that the uplink SCC belongs to a pre-determined group of component carriers; and', 'determining that the uplink SCC is uplink synchronized if any other member of the group is uplink synchronized, and otherwise determining that the uplink SCC is not synchronized.', '10.
