Assignee: T-MOBILE INNOVATIONS LLC
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 6:
7. Non-transitory computer storage media storing computer-usable instructions that when executed by a processor cause operations comprising:
performing a first calibration check on a first node configured to communicate to a first user equipment, a second user equipment, and a third user equipment via a first component carrier, wherein the first calibration check determines whether there is a break in uplink or downlink reciprocity;
determining that the first node fails the first calibration check;
in response to the first node communicating via the first component carrier failing the first calibration check, pairing the first user equipment with a second node communicating via a second component carrier as a primary component carrier to the first user equipment; and
in response to each of (i) the first node communicating via the first component carrier failing the first calibration check and (ii) an uplink capacity of a third node communicating via a third component carrier being greater than an uplink capacity of the second node communicating via the second component carrier, pairing the second user equipment with the third node communicating via the third component carrier as a primary component carrier to the second user equipment.
