Abstract

Systems, methods and devices can are provided, which can include configuring one or more bandwidth parts for a secondary cell (SCell) that is in communication with a user equipment (UE). A base station transmits to a UE a first radio resource control (RRC) message including one or more configuration parameters for a first bandwidth part (BWP) associated with a secondary cell (SCell). The UE communicates a first message with the SCell via the first SCell BWP. The UE receives a second RRC message indicating a change from the first SCell BWP to a second SCell BWP to be used for SCell communications. The UE communicates a second message with the SCell via the second SCell BWP.
