Abstract
Methods and systems for selecting a primary component carrier for use in new radio (NR) carrier aggregation are described. A load of a first Dynamic Shared Spectrum (DSS) component carrier is monitored. When the load of the first DSS component carrier reaches a threshold value, an identification of one or more NR user equipment that are assigned to use the first DSS component carrier as a primary component carrier for carrier aggregation is made. The one or more NR user equipment are handed over from the first component carrier to a second component carrier for use as a primary component carrier for the one or more NR user equipment. Methods and systems for selecting a secondary component carrier for use in NR carrier aggregation are also described. A load of a first DSS component carrier is monitored, wherein the carrier is assigned as the secondary component carrier for one or more NR user equipment. A determination is made that the load of the first DSS component carrier has reached a threshold value. A second component carrier is re-assigned as the secondary component carrier for the one or more NR user equipment.
