Abstract
A method of handling TAGs in a UE capable of CA is disclosed. The method comprises monitoring time differences between signals received from any two serving cells and determining for each time difference whether a configured capability of the UE supports the time difference. A wireless telecommunication device and a computer program are also disclosed.

A method of handling timing advance groups (TAGs) in a user equipment (UE) configured to support carrier aggregation (CA), the method comprising:
- monitoring time differences between signals received from any two serving cells;
- determining, for each time difference, whether a configured capability of the UE supports the time difference.
A wireless telecommunication device arranged to operate in a wireless telecommunication network supporting carrier equipment (CA), wherein the device is configured to support CA, the device comprising one or more processing circuits configured to:
- monitor time differences between signals received from any two serving cells;
- and
- determine, for each time difference, whether a configured capability of the device supports the time difference.
A computer program comprising instructions that, when executed on a processor of a communication apparatus configured to support carrier aggregation (CA), causes the communication apparatus to:
- monitor time differences between signals received from any two serving cells;
- determine, for each time difference, whether a configured capability of the communication apparatus supports the time difference.
