No assignee for this patent application has been made.Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Along-term evolution (LTE) system, initiated by the third-ge neration partnership project (3GPP), is nowbeing regarded as a new radio interf ace and radio network architecture that provides a high data rate, lowlatency, packet optimization, and improved system capacity and coverage. In the LTE syste m, an evolveduniversal terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN) includes a pl urality of evolved Node-Bs (eNBs) and communicates with a plurality of mobile st ations, also referred to as user equipment’s (UEs). The UE ofthe LTE system can transmit and receive data on only one carrier component at any time.
