Abstract

A wireless device receives at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells. The plurality of cells are grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising a primary PUCCH group and a secondary PUCCH group comprising a PUCCH secondary cell. The wireless device receives, in subframe n, a media access control (MAC) command indicating deactivation of the PUCCH secondary cell. The wireless device stops transmission of channel state information for a first secondary cell in the secondary PUCCH group in subframe n+8.

Claims (38)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device from a base station, at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:

a primary PUCCH group comprising a primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to the base station; and

a secondary PUCCH group comprising a PUCCH secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station;

receiving, in a first subframe, a media access control (MAC) command indicating deactivation of the PUCCH secondary cell; and

stopping, in response to the deactivation of the PUCCH secondary cell, transmission of channel state information for a first secondary cell in the secondary PUCCH group in a second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe, wherein the first secondary cell is different from the PUCCH secondary cell and the stopping does not occur before the second subframe.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising stopping a deactivation timer associated with the first secondary cell on or before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one message comprises a plurality of dedicated parameters comprising a deactivation timer parameter.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MAC command comprises a bitmap.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising stopping a monitoring of a downlink control channel of the first secondary cell on or before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MAC command further indicates a deactivation of the first secondary cell.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising stopping uplink transmission on the first secondary cell before stopping uplink transmission on the PUCCH secondary cell.

8. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device from a base station, at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:

a primary PUCCH group comprising a primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to the base station; and

a secondary PUCCH group comprising a PUCCH secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station;

receiving, in a first subframe, a media access control (MAC) command indicating deactivation of a first secondary cell and the PUCCH secondary cell;

stopping uplink transmission via the PUCCH secondary cell on, and not before, a second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe; and

stopping uplink transmission via the first secondary cell before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising stopping a deactivation timer associated with the first secondary cell on or before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one message comprises a plurality of dedicated parameters comprising a deactivation timer parameter.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the MAC command comprises a bitmap.

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising stopping a monitoring of a downlink control channel of the first secondary cell on or before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein a deactivation timer of the PUCCH secondary cell is disabled.

14. A wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive, from a base station, at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:

a primary PUCCH group corn prising a primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to the base station; and

a secondary PUCCH group comprising a PUCCH secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station;

receive, in a first subframe, a media access control (MAC) command indicating deactivation of the PUCCH secondary cell; and

stop, in response to the deactivation of the PUCCH secondary cell, transmission of channel state information for a first secondary cell in the secondary PUCCH group in a second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe, wherein the first secondary cell is different from the PUCCH secondary cell and the stopping does not occur before the second subframe.

15. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the wireless device to stop a deactivation timer associated with the first secondary cell on or before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

16. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the at least one message comprises a plurality of dedicated parameters comprising a deactivation timer parameter.

17. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the MAC command comprises a bitmap.

18. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the wireless device to stop monitoring a downlink control channel of the first secondary cell on or before the second subframe that is eight subframes after the first subframe.

19. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the MAC command further indicates a deactivation of the first secondary cell.

20. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the wireless device to stop uplink transmission via the first secondary cell before stopping uplink transmission via the PUCCH secondary cell.
