Abstract
Carrier aggregation and dual connectivity allow a user device to communicate with one or more base stations on multiple component carrier frequencies. When it is determined that the user device should handover to a new base station, the user device performs a substantial portion of the needed handover operations with the new base station using only one of the component carrier frequencies. Meanwhile, the user device maintains data communications with the original base station on the remaining component carrier frequencies.
