Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for determining an activation order in multiple secondary cell (SCell) activation. For example, an order of SCell activation may be determined when a user equipment (UE) receives a command activating multiple SCells. When the to-be-activated SCells include both known SCells and unknown SCells, the UE may activate the known SCell (s) first followed by activating the unknown SCells. If the to-be-activated SCells in a given band are all unknown SCells, the UE may operate such that the rest of the unknown SCell (s) in the same band are assumed to be known. The UE may then activate these SCell (s) in the same manner as known SCell activation and according to the same delay limits. If the to-be-activated SCells are in different bands, the UE may first activate the SCells in the band where there is the largest number of unknown SCells.
