Abstract

Embodiments include methods for a user equipment (UE) to advertise UE capabilities to a network node in a radio access network. Such methods include transmitting to the network node one or more BandCombination elements. Each BandCombination element includes: a list of frequency bands in which the UE can concurrently transmit and/or receive information, and a FeatureSetCombination element that identifies features supported by the UE within each frequency band of the list. Such methods include receiving from the network node a configuration including: identification of one or more frequency bands from the list included in a particular one of the BandCombination elements, and for each identified frequency band, configuration of one or more features identified by the FeatureSetCombination element included in the particular BandCombination element. Other embodiments include complementary methods for a network node, as well as UEs and network nodes configured to perform such methods.
