Claim 17:
18. The wireless device of claim 16, wherein the wireless device is configured to divide the set of component carriers by grouping the component carriers with both a shared monitoring pattern and a shared starting span into a first set of one or more groups and the other component carriers into a second group; and
wherein the wireless device is configured to determine the number of non-overlapping CCEs to monitor for the second group by:
determining a PDCCH monitoring limit for component carriers with a shared span pattern,
splitting the determined PDCCH monitoring limit for component carriers of the first group based on the shared span pattern; and
splitting the determined PDCCH monitoring limit for component carriers of the second group across spans of the component carriers of the second group.
