Abstract
There are provided measures for enabling transmission mode control for inter-hand multi-carrier capable devices, such as inter-band carrier aggregation capable devices. Such measure may exemplarily include acquiring at least one output power restriction value for a cumulative output power for a combination of at least two uplink carriers of a terminal device. The two uplink carriers operate on different bands, at the terminal device, and perform transmission mode control in terms of switching between an uplink carrier combination transmission mode and a single uplink carrier transmission mode using the acquired at least one output power restriction value at the terminal device.
