Abstract
Systems, methods, and software can be used to process a control channel at a user agent (UA) within a wireless communication system. In some aspects, the method includes identifying one carrier as an anchor carrier andat least one otheranothercarrier as a non-anchor carrier;for each carrier: determining a location of a UA specific search space including one or more control channel candidates for the carrier based on a linear congruential random number; and attempting to decode each of the control channel candidates in the UA specific search space to identify at least one of an uplink or a downlink grant associated with the carrierand receiving information indicating a first number of control channel candidates for a first aggregation level for the anchor carrier and a second number of control channel candidates for the first aggregation level for the non-anchor carrier, wherein the first number of control channel candidates is different from the second number of control channel candidates.
