Claim 9:
10. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
under control of one or more processors:
receiving a resource allocation request for an uplink transmission of user plane data;
determining an uplink resource utilization associated with the uplink transmission;
determining a carrier aggregation of two or more available carriers for the uplink transmission;
identifying a particular available carrier of the two or more available carriers with a current (Time-Division-Duplexing) TDD ratio of downlink transmissions relative to uplink transmissions;
determining an updated TDD ratio for the particular available carrier;
generating scheduling information associated with the carrier aggregation for delivery to a base station node, based at least in part on the carrier aggregation; and
generating a recommendation for delivery to the base station node, to adjust the current TDD ratio to the updated TDD ratio.
