Abstract

A method for computer-aided mapping of system information medium access control protocol messages onto a plurality of transport channels for transmission using an orthogonal frequency division multiple access method, wherein a scheduling of system information data packets information in the context of the mapping on a transport channel of the plurality of transport channels is carried out dependent on the type of the system information.

Claims (19)

1. A user equipment (UE) comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more non-transitory computer-readable media that include instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the UE to:

identify a first system information block (SIB1) that was transmitted on a statically defined transmission period, wherein the SIB1 includes a public land mobile network (PLMN) identity or a cell identity, and wherein the SIB1 includes an indication of how system information is to be transmitted by a base station to the UE in a second system information block, wherein the indication is to indicate a frequency band in which the second system information block is to be transmitted; and

identify, based on the indication, the second system information block that was transmitted on dynamically scheduled radio resources.

2. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the SIB1 and the second system information block were transmitted in accordance with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA).

3. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the second system information block includes cell selection information.

4. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the SIB1 or the second system information block are a system information block of a logical broadcast channel.

5. The UE of claim 4 , wherein the logical broadcast channel is a broadcast control channel (BCCH).

6. A user equipment (UE) comprising:

a receiver to:

receive a first system information block (SIB1) that was transmitted on a statically defined transmission period, wherein the SIB1 includes a public land mobile network (PLMN) identity or a cell identity and an indication of a frequency band in which a second system information block is to be transmitted; and

receive the second system information block that was transmitted on a dynamically scheduled radio resource in the frequency band; and

a processor coupled with the receiver, the processor to:

identify, based on the SIB1, the second system information block.

7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the SIB1 and the second system information block were transmitted in accordance with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA).

8. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the second system information block includes cell selection information.

9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the SIB1 or the second system information block are a system information block of a logical broadcast channel.

10. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the logical broadcast channel is a broadcast control channel (BCCH).
