Implementations of the disclosure may include one or more of the following optional features. In some examples, the expected KPI includes an averaged number of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers used by the transceiver during one or more previous connections to the corresponding available CC at the current location. The transceiver may operate in a non-carrier aggregation mode during each of the one or more previous connections to the corresponding available CC. In some scenarios, for each of the available CCs, the operations include obtaining an expected signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) associated with the corresponding available CC at the current location, determining whether the SINR associated with the corresponding available CC at the current location satisfies a SINR threshold, and when the SINR threshold is satisfied, the configuring the transceiver to operate on the corresponding available CC and support a MIMO antenna configuration.
