Abstract  Abstract

A method for designating by a user agent supporting multiple carriers in a wireless communication network one assigned carrier as an anchor carrier at least one assigned carrier as an inactive carrier and at least one assigned carrier as an active carrier. The method can also include receiving a command from an enhanced node B causing a first carrier to transition from an inactive carrier to an active carrier. Additionally the method can include responsive to reception of the command monitoring a control channel corresponding to the first carrier. Further the method can also include receiving downlink control information (DCI) via the control channel. The method can also include responsive to reception of the DCI starting a timer and deactivating the first carrier at the expiration of the timer.
