Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA); LTE Advanced inter-band Carrier Aggregation (CA) Rel-14 for 3 Down Link (DL) / 1 Up Link (UL)
The present document is a technical report for 3DL/1UL Inter-band Carrier Aggregation under Rel-14 time frame according to the New CA WI approach in Release 14 [1]. The purpose is to gather the relevant background information and studies in order to address 3DL/1UL Inter-band Carrier Aggregation requirements for the Rel-14 band combinations in Table 1-1.

Note 1: UL carrier shall be supported in each of the 3 bands being aggregated unless otherwise specified.
Note 2: UL carrier is only supported on Band 1 or Band 42 not Band 41 because the fall back mode 1UL/2DL CA_1A-41A has the limitation that UL carrier is only supported on Band 1.
Note 3: UL carrier is only supported on Band 1 or Band 3 not Band 41 because the fall back mode 1UL/2DL CA_1A-41A has the limitation that UL carrier is only supported on Band 1.
Note 4: UL carrier is only supported on Band 3 or Band 20 not Band 32 because Band 32 is SDL band.
Note 5: For CA_28A-41A-42A, only non-simultaneous Rx/Tx on Band 41 and Band 42 is supported.
This TR contains a general part and band specific combination part. The actual requirements are added to the corresponding technical specifications.
