1. A method comprising:
establishing, with a base station, a first component carrier having a first frequency band;
establishing, with the base station, a second component carrier in carrier aggregation with the first component carrier and the second component carrier having a second frequency band that overlaps the first frequency band of the first component carrier;
transmitting, from the base station, signaling and control information exclusively on the first component carrier; and
scheduling data packets on a non-overlapping portion of the second component carrier.
