Abstract
Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing time domain bandwidth part (TD-BWP) switch for carrier aggregation (CA) for balancing between the UE power consumption and a latency of the UE. For example, the UE includes one or more transceivers configured to wirelessly communicate with a base station on a plurality of component carriers (CCs) in a carrier aggregated (CA) network. The UE also includes a processor communicatively coupled to the one or more transceivers. The processor is configured to perform a time domain bandwidth part (TD-BWP) switch on a first CC of the plurality of CCs when the UE and the base station are communicating on the first CC. The processor is further configured to perform the TD-BWP switch on a second CC of the plurality of CCs when the UE and the base station are communicating on the second CC.
