Abstract
A multi-carrier aggregation method and apparatus, user equipment, and a network side device are disclosed. The method includes: determining, by a network side device according to information about a transmission resource that is obtained when at least one component carrier is successfully obtained through contention, start and end times of a scheduling phase corresponding to the at least one component carrier, where the scheduling phase is divided by an uplink-downlink switch point into an uplink phase of the scheduling phase and a downlink phase of the scheduling phase, the uplink-downlink switch point is used to divide a time to obtain an uplink time of the component carrier and a downlink time of the component carrier, and uplink-downlink switch points of two or more component carriers are aligned in time; and performing, by the network side device, downlink transmission with user equipment in the downlink phase of the scheduling phase.
