A network device (e.g., an evolved Node B (eNB) or user equipment (UE)) can process or generate a measurement gap pattern to enable network measurements of carriers or bands during measurement gaps ona per component carrier (CC) basis. The transmitting or receiving of the measurement objects (e.g., carriers or band) communicatively coupled on the network and the measurement gap pattern can be communicated via one or more radio resource control (RRC) signals, and re-configured according to a supporting CC data set identifying one or more criteria related to each CC such as UE capabilities, associations of the UE capabilities to measurement gap configurations, types of measurement gap period / gap offsets, different measurement gap patterns, an absence of a measurement gap, or other criteria related to CCs, respectively. In response to the supporting CC data set, measurement gap patterns can be dynamically re-configured per CC.
