Abstract
It is provided an apparatus, including base station means to provide a base station functionality using component carriers; neighbor detecting means to detect a neighboring base station; informing means to inform a coordinating device about the neighboring base station; willingness setting means to set a willingness to perform self-tuning based on a respective long-term priority for each component carrier, wherein the long-term priorities are received from the coordinating device, and the willingness is only set if the long-term priorities are not in contradiction to an actual requirement, willingness providing means to provide an indication of the willingness to the coordinating device; and self-tuning means to perform self-tuning if an agreement statement is received from the coordinating device, wherein, as a result of the self-tuning, a usage of each component carrier by the base station means is based on the received long-term information and the actual requirement.
