This page will review various aspects on LTE Advanced especially with focus on Carrier Aggregation in RRC Messages (Mostly UE Capability Information and RRC Connection Reconfiguration)
RRC Snapshots for LTE Advanced
There are a good news and a bad news on RRC messages for Carrier Aggregation. Which one do you want to go first ? Good News first ? Good News is that basically there would be only two messages you have to dig into. (UE Capability Information and RRC Connection Reconfiguration). Now goes the Bad News. Bad News is that the two message are so complicated (contains so much information), it is extremely difficult to understand all the details. At least to me, it seems to take a couple of YEARS to understand all of those details.
Following is overall steps for LTE adavanced Carrier Aggregation and UE Capability Information and RRC Connection Reconfiguration is the critical steps for Carrier Aggregation configuration.
Followings is the information carried by UE Capability Information and its IEs for carrier aggregation and antenna configuration. (These are from 3GPP TS 36.331 version 10.4.0 Release 10)
Following table is used to configure 'CA-BandwidthClass-r10' IE (This table is from 3GPP TS 36.101 version 10.8.0 Release 13)
36.101(Rel 13) - Table 5.6A-1: CA bandwidth classes and corresponding nominal guard bands
Followings is RRC Connection Reconfiguration message and its IEs for carrier aggregation and antenna configuration. (These are from 3GPP TS 36.331 version 10.4.0 Release 10)
Closer view on Carrier Aggregation Establishment - 2CC
Following sequence diagram shows the process of establishing Carrier Aggregation (2 Carrier) with more details. If you think it is too complicated, just focus on step (1), (6), (7), (8) first.
(1) is the command (RRC message) to tel the UE to configure the Radio Stack (PHY, MAC) to establish the aggregated communication (Carrier Aggregration). You need to look into every details of RRC Connection Configuration message to fully understand this step. (2) is the HARQ ACK from UE saying 'I got a PDSCH (carrying RRC Connection Reconfiguration). (3) is the step where both UE and Network performs the necessary setup for Carrier Aggregation. (4) is the step where UE send SR saying 'I need a physical resource to send some data (PUSCH carrying RRC Connection Reconfiguration Complete message in this case)'. (5) is the step where Network allocate resource in response to step (4). (6) is the step where UE reporting to network 'I am done with the setup and the setup is successful'. At this step, the setup has been established only at RRC layer and MAC layer for the second carrier is not yet activated. (7) is the step where Network send a commond to UE saying 'Now activate MAC layer for the second carrier as well'. (8) indicate the status where MAC/PHY for both carrier are fully activated.
Closer view on Carrier Aggregation Establishment - 3CC
Following sequence diagram shows an example for establishing the 3CC (Component Carrier) Carrier Aggregation. In 3CC case, there can be two different ways to establish the CA. One is to add SCC1 and SCC2 one by one and the other one is to add SCC1 and SCC2 at the same time. This sequence shows the case where we add SCC1/SCC2 at the same time. In this case, overal sequence is exactly same as the 2CC case that we saw above.
(1) is the command (RRC message) to tel the UE to configure the Radio Stack (PHY, MAC) to establish the aggregated communication (Carrier Aggregration). You need to look into every details of RRC Connection Configuration message to fully understand this step. (2) is the HARQ ACK from UE saying 'I got a PDSCH (carrying RRC Connection Reconfiguration). (3) is the step where both UE and Network performs the necessary setup for Carrier Aggregation. (4) is the step where UE send SR saying 'I need a physical resource to send some data (PUSCH carrying RRC Connection Reconfiguration Complete message in this case)'. (5) is the step where Network allocate resource in response to step (4). (6) is the step where UE reporting to network 'I am done with the setup and the setup is successful'. At this step, the setup has been established only at RRC layer and MAC layer for the second carrier is not yet activated. (7) is the step where Network send a commond to UE saying 'Now activate MAC layer for the second carrier as well'. (8) indicate the status where MAC/PHY for both carrier are fully activated.
Following is an example that I get as of Jul 2013. This is only an example based on availble ASN implementation, it may not accurately reflect real implementation. This is only for your reference and to give you some idea on what kind of details you need to study to understand/implement Carrier Aggregation on your job. Don't try to blindly copy these elements as it is. I would not work.

The most important thing you have to pay attention in UE Capability Information is CA Band combination as specified in RRC message as shown below.

Another important part is featureGroupIndicator (FGI) for r10. It has following items.

Following table shows Carrier Aggregation Bandwidth Class in terms of total number of RBs used by aggregated carrier.
For example, CA Bandwidth Class 'B' says N_RB,agg <= 100. It means that total aggregated RB should be less than 100. Following shows some example cases which is allowed and not allowed configuration. Case 1 : PCC = 10 Mhz (max 50 RB), SCC = 10 Mhz (max 50 RB). It would give max aggregated RB is 50 RB +50 RB which is <= 100. So this is allowed.
Case 2 : PCC = 10 Mhz (max 50 RB), SCC = 15 Mhz (max 75 RB). It would give max aggregated RB is 50 RB +75 RB which is >= 100. So this is not allowed. 36.101(Rel 13) - Table 5.6A-1: CA bandwidth classes and corresponding nominal guard bands
This bandwidth class supported by a UE is reported to network via UE Capability Information message as shown below.
Following is the example for 2CC Carrier Aggregation supportability : DL 4A_17A, UL 4A nonCriticalExtension rf-Parameters-v1020 supportedBandCombination-r10: 1 item Item 0 BandCombinationParameters-r10: 2 items Item 0 BandParameters-r10 bandEUTRA-r10: 4 bandParametersUL-r10: 1 item Item 0 CA-MIMO-ParametersUL-r10 ca-BandwidthClassUL-r10: a bandParametersDL-r10: 1 item Item 0 CA-MIMO-ParametersDL-r10 ca-BandwidthClassDL-r10: a supportedMIMO-CapabilityDL-r10: twoLayers Item 1 BandParameters-r10 bandEUTRA-r10: 17 bandParametersDL-r10: 1 item Item 0 CA-MIMO-ParametersDL-r10 ca-BandwidthClassDL-r10: a supportedMIMO-CapabilityDL-r10: twoLayers

Followings are some more examples without the detailed RRC message.
Which Band Combination is allowed ?
Now the question you may ask is how can I know which band combination of bands a UE support in terms of Carrier Aggregation ? It is also supposed to be reported to network by the UE via UE Capability Information message. Followings are some of the possible IEs a UE may use depending on its release status. RF-Parameters-v1020 ::= SEQUENCE { supportedBandCombination-r10 SupportedBandCombination-r10 }
RF-Parameters-v1090 ::= SEQUENCE { supportedBandCombination-v1090 SupportedBandCombination-v1090 OPTIONAL }
RF-Parameters-v1130 ::= SEQUENCE { supportedBandCombination-v1130 SupportedBandCombination-v1130 OPTIONAL }
The definition of these IE is described as below in 36.331. Generally it sounds OK.. but it is not very clear to me if I go into one step deeper. For example, this definition does not clearly explain on which item in the list can be a PCC (Primary Component Carrier) and which should be SCC (Secondary Component Carrier). As far as I know, there is no priority of these items in terms of determining PCC/SCC, meaning either one should be allowed to be PCC depending on situation. But you may see some UE that allows only specific PCC/SCC mapping. bandCombinationListEUTRA : One entry corresponding to each supported band combination listed in the same order as in supportedBandCombination.
BandCombinationParameters-v1090 : If included, the UE shall include the same number of entries, and listed in the same order, as in BandCombinationParameters-r10.
BandCombinationParameters-v1130 :The field is applicable to each supported CA bandwidth class combination (i.e. CA configuration in TS 36.101 Section 5.6A.1 indicated in the corresponding band combination
One example of Carrier Combination information in UE Capability Information is as follows. This example shows the UE allows Carrier Aggregation between band 4 and band 17.
nonCriticalExtension rf-Parameters-v1020 supportedBandCombination-r10: 1 item Item 0 BandCombinationParameters-r10: 2 items Item 0 BandParameters-r10 bandEUTRA-r10: 4 bandParametersUL-r10: 1 item Item 0 CA-MIMO-ParametersUL-r10 ca-BandwidthClassUL-r10: a bandParametersDL-r10: 1 item Item 0 CA-MIMO-ParametersDL-r10 ca-BandwidthClassDL-r10: a supportedMIMO-CapabilityDL-r10: twoLayers Item 1 BandParameters-r10 bandEUTRA-r10: 17 bandParametersDL-r10: 1 item Item 0 CA-MIMO-ParametersDL-r10 ca-BandwidthClassDL-r10: a supportedMIMO-CapabilityDL-r10: twoLayers
Following Table from 36.101 V12.5.0 (2014-11) shows all the possible (allowed) band combination of inter-band CA case. This list is likely to get extended as time goes on. So try to refer to latest spec.
When you want to analyze UE capability, you can refer to bandEUTRA-r10 and ca-BandwidthClassDL-r10 in a BandCombinationParameters to figure out complete CA configuration as expressed in the first column of following tables.
36.101 Table 5.6A.1-1: E-UTRA CA configurations and bandwidth combination sets defined for intra-band contiguous CA
36.101 Table 5.6A.1-2: E-UTRA CA configurations and bandwidth combination sets defined for inter-band CA
Table 5.6A.1-2a: E-UTRA CA configurations and bandwidth combination sets defined for inter-band CA (three bands)
36.101 v13.2.1 Table 5.6A.1-2b: E-UTRA CA configurations and bandwidth combination sets defined for inter-band CA (four bands)
One of the UE capability information that may confuses you would be following IE. This IE shows you which band are supported by the UE in terms of single carrier. It is not about Carrier Aggregation.

RRC Connection Reconfiguration for adding SCC - 2CC
Following is an example for RRC Connection Reconfiguration for LTE advanced (with focus on Carrier Aggregation). I just enabled all IE on ASN to give you full details of parameters, but it reality the implementation would start with very limited set of parameters enabled and leaving large portions of parameter to some 3GPP default or hardcoded configuration based on aggrement between UE maker and Network Operator.
First part you have to pay attention to this sample RRC message is sCellToAddModList-r10 which is for adding the SCC and next important thing is pucch-ConfigDedicated-v1020 which is for defining uplink control channel for reporting Ack/Nac for aggregated Carrier. With this pucch setup, UE is supposed to use PUCCH format 1b with channel selection. The operation of PUCCH 1b for 2CC Carrier Aggregation is very complicated and confusing. Refer to LTE Advanced PUCCH page for the details.

RRC Connection Reconfiguration for Measuring the Second Cell
To make it sure that Network triggers adding the second cell only when UE can detect the second cell with a certain signal condition, Network usually perform measurement for the second cell. One of the example of this measurement process is as follows.
According to 36.331,
ThresholdEUTRA For RSRP: RSRP based threshold for event evaluation. The actual value is IE value . 140 dBm. For RSRQ: RSRQ based threshold for event evaluation. The actual value is (IE value . 40)/2 dB. EUTRAN configures the same threshold quantity for all the thresholds of an event.
