Abstract

This innovation relates to systems and methods for multiple carrier allocation in wireless communication networks, and more particularly to allocation and/or de-allocation of one or multiple carriers on the uplink to a high-speed uplink packet access user. A radio network controller can allocate uplink carriers to users based on a plurality of criteria, including but not limited to network loading, channel conditions, and so forth. The allocation messages can be transmitted to the user via layer three messages or layer one signaling.
