Abstract

A first BS transmits a first set of aggregated carriers including a PCC having a first carrier frequency and an SCC having a second carrier frequency. Contemporaneously, a second BS transmits a second set of aggregated carriers including a PCC having the second carrier frequency and an SCC having the first carrier frequency. In one aspect, the first BS transmits on the SCC a subframe having a number of selected symbols of the subframe at a lower power than other symbols of the subframe, the selected symbols aligning at least in part with a number of symbols of a control region of a subframe transmitted by the second BS on the PCC having the second carrier frequency. In another aspect, a UE attached to the second BS receives at least control information on the PCC of the first BS and receives data on the PCC of the second BS.
