1. A method for wireless communications by a user-equipment (UE), comprising:
monitoring occurrences of a first number of operations to be performed for a plurality of component carriers (CCs) according to different periodicities;
determining a second number of available narrow band (NB) radio frequency (RF) chains; and
scheduling, on the available NB RF chains, up to the second number of the operations to be performed for the plurality of CCs based on a scheduling algorithm if the first number is greater than the second number.
