Abstract

A wireless access point to control Carrier Aggregation (CA) over a wireless repeater chain. The wireless access point wirelessly exchanges network signaling with User Equipment (UE) over the wireless repeater chain using a number of repeater hops. The wireless access point processes the number of repeater hops to select a radio frequency for a CA Primary Component Carrier (PCC) and to select an amount of CA Secondary Component Carriers (SCCs) for the UE. The wireless access point wirelessly exchanges user data with the UE over the wireless repeater chain using the selected radio frequency for the CA PCC and using the selected amount of the CA SCCs.
