Abstract

Apparatus and methods that provide wireless communications, where a method for wireless communications includes receiving at a Node B a first set of bits indicating at least two frequency bands supported by a UE for HSDPA, the first set of bits further specifying a number of downlink adjacent carriers supported by the UE for each of the at least two frequency bands. The method also includes transmitting a first set of bits indicating support for a set of carriers for each band, the information comprising information related to a maximum channel bandwidth supported for that band; and transmitting a second set of bits indicating a configuration for the set of carriers under which multiple uplinks will be supported.
