Abstract

A method comprising receiving a first indication, from a terminal device, indicating that the terminal device is capable of supporting carrier aggregation, obtaining information regarding a battery level of the terminal device, estimating battery consumption per one carrier component, and based, at least partly, on the estimated battery consumption and information regarding the battery level, determining a number of additional carrier components to be activated for the terminal device.
