Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, a base station, and a user equipment for activating or deactivating a carrier. The method includes the following: A base station determines to activate or deactivate at least one secondary carrier used to communication with a user equipment and transmits a High Speed Shared Control Channel HS-SCCH order to the user equipment, where the HS-SCCH order carries indication information used to indicate activation or deactivation of the at least one secondary carrier. In the embodiments of the present invention, a user equipment is capable of correctly activating or deactivating a carrier.
Claims10
A method for activating or deactivating a carrier, comprising:
- receiving, by a user equipment, a High Speed Shared Control Channel (HS-SCCH) order transmitted by a base station, wherein the HS-SCCH order carries indication information, the indication information comprises at least three bits, and the indication information is used to indicate activation or deactivation of at least one secondary carrier for communication between the user equipment and the base station;
- and
- determining, by the user equipment, the first bit among the at least three bits as 0 and updating an activation or deactivation state of the at least one secondary carrier according to the at least three bits.
A user equipment, comprising:
- a receiver, configured to receive a High Speed Shared Control Channel (HS-SCCH) order transmitted by a base station, wherein the HS-SCCH order carries indication information, the indication information comprises at least three bits, and the indication information indicates activation or deactivation of the at least one secondary carrier for communication between the user equipment and the base station;
- and
- a processor, configured to determine the first bit among the at least three bits as 0 and updating an activation or deactivation state of the at least one secondary carrier according to the at least three bits.
