A Long Term Evolution (LTE) network wirelessly exchanges data over an LTE channel with a plurality of User Equipment (UE) by using Carrier Aggregation with at least some of the UEs. The LTE network compares a number of the UEs using the LTE channel to an admission threshold, and if the number of UEs exceeds the admission threshold, then identifying individual ones of the UEs that are using the LTE channel for a Carrier Aggregation Secondary Component Carrier but not for a Carrier Aggregation Primary Component Carrier. The LTE network disables the LTE channel for the individual ones of the UEs that are using the LTE channel for their Secondary Component Carrier but not for their Primary Component Carrier.
