Network assisted secondary cell activation

Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for secondary cell activation with reduced delay. An example method, performed at a first wireless node, generally includes obtaining, while operating on an active first cell, first signaling from a second wireless node indicating activation of a second cell, operating on the second cell, during a first time duration after obtaining the signaling, subject to one or more scheduling restrictions, and operating on the second cell independent of the one or more scheduling restrictions, after the first time duration.
