Claim 8:
9. A method for carrier aggregation (CA) grouping based on user device location, the method comprising:
dividing a coverage area of a first base station associated with a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) service into a plurality of CA groups for assigning a plurality of component carriers to each of the plurality of CA groups, wherein a first CA group of the plurality of CA groups is a different CA group than a first neighboring CA group of component carriers provided by a second base station;
receiving, from a user device, a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) beam report associated with a component carrier;
receiving a location from the user device; and
based on the location of the user device and the SSB beam report, assigning the component carrier to the first CA group of the plurality of CA groups, such that the first CA group comprises a first plurality of component carriers including the component carrier.
