Abstract
A method for reporting carrier status in a user equipment (UE) of a wireless communication system is disclosed. The wireless communication system supports Carrier Aggregation (CA) such that the UE is able to perform transmission or reception through multiple component carriers. The method includes steps of configuring a plurality of component carriers, receiving a signaling utilized for activating or deactivating the plurality of component carriers, and using a medium access control control element (MAC CE) to indicate the signaling is successfully received after the signaling is successfully received.
