Abstract
A method and apparatus may predict a link quality. The method may also include determining a primary cell for a user equipment based on the predicted link quality. The determining the primary cell comprises determining whether the user equipment should be served by a time-division-duplex carrier or by a frequency-division-duplex carrier. The method may also include determining a carrier aggregation to be used by the user equipment based on the predicted link quality.
