A method implemented in a cellular network to automatically configure inter-node carrier aggregation between cells. The method includes identifying, for a source cell included in the cellular network, a set of one or more candidate target cells, determining one or more coverage overlap factors for the source cell and a first candidate target cell included in the set of one or more candidate target cells, determining whether carrier aggregation should be enabled between the source cell and the first candidate target cell based on the one or more coverage overlap factors, and in response to determining that carrier aggregation should be enabled between the source cell and the first candidate target cell, enabling carrier aggregation between the source cell and the first candidate target cell.
