Claim 9:
10. A system for assigning component carriers for relay nodes, the system comprising:
a processing node; and
a processor coupled to the processing node, the processor configured to perform operations comprising:
receiving an attach request from a relay node at a donor access node, the donor access node being configured to deploy a plurality of component carriers;
determining that channel state information is consistent over a time period;
based on determining that the channel state information is consistent over a time period, determining all available component carriers of the plurality of component carriers to avoid delays or failures in setting up the plurality of component carriers; and
assigning all available component carriers towards data transmission between the relay node and the donor access node by default to provide continuous resources to a backhaul link of the relay nodes.
