Carrier aggregation is the new feature added in 3Gpp release 10 in LTE advanced. This feature support dynamic bandwidth allocation to user on demand from same frequency band and inter frequency band on same cell or different cell.

Connected mode DRX is another feature in Lte which support power saving and increasing battery life when UE is having an active EPS connection /DRB with core EPS network. The feature put UE in sleep mode during idle period of an active session data transmission.

SPS viz semi persistent scheduling in LTE is another feature which is used in the implementation of voice over LTE Voip feature. This reduces signalling overhead on PDCCH in voLTE.

LTE-Advanced: Is it necessary primary cell and secondary cells should have same coding and modulation schemes?

An UE configured for carrier aggregation, may have different radio channel conditions for primary and secondary cells.
I meant to say, primary cell may have strong signal strength at the same time UE may observed secondary cell(s) not too good.
In this case, does the same modulation and coding schemes used for primary and secondary or may use different coding and modulation schemes for different channels for the same sub frame?
