Abstract
During operation, a radio node may receive, from a computer, approval and authorization to use a first grant for a first portion of an SLA band of frequencies, and approval and authorization to use a second grant for a second portion of the SLA band of frequencies, where the first grant is a primary grant and the second grant is a secondary grant in a supplemental downlink carrier aggregation. Then, the interface circuit may receive, from the computer, a heartbeat response that includes a grant termination message for the first grant, where the grant termination message includes a warning that indicates that the use of the first portion of the SLA band of frequencies is revoked after a time interval. In response to the grant termination message, the interface circuit may define the second grant as the primary grant for the supplemental downlink carrier aggregation.
