Abstract

A mobile telecommunications system entity for a mobile telecommunications system has at least one entity, which serves at least one user equipment. The mobile telecommunications system entity has circuitry which is configured to transmit scheduling information for on-demand system information, which can be requested by the at least one user equipment.

Claims (24)

1. A mobile telecommunications system entity for a mobile telecommunications system including at least one entity serving at least one user equipment, comprising circuitry configured to:

transmit scheduling information for on-demand system information, which is requested by the at least one user equipment,

wherein the scheduling information is divided at least in a first part and a second part,

wherein the first part includes information about a time schedule according to which system information is transmitted and the second part includes scheduling information other than the information about the time schedule, the system information including System Information Block mapping information.

2. The mobile telecornmuriications system entity of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to transmit the scheduling information included in system information.

3. The mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 2 , wherein the scheduling information is included in a system information block of the system information.

4. The mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 1 , wherein the second part is transmitted according to the information about the time schedule.

5. The mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 1 , wherein the system information includes minimum system information which includes basic information for initial access to a cell.

6. The mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 5 , wherein the on-demand system information is not included in the minimum system information.

7. Circuitry for a mobile telecommunications system entity for a mobile telecommunications system including at least one entity serving at least one user equipment, the circuitry being configured to:

transmit scheduling information for on-demand system information, which is requested by the at least one user equipment,

wherein the scheduling information is divided at least in a first part and a second part,

wherein the first part includes information about a time schedule according to which system information is transmitted and the second part includes scheduling information other than the information about the time schedule, the system information including System Information Block mapping information.

8. The circuitry for the mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 7 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to transmit the scheduling information included in system information.

9. The circuitry for the mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 8 , wherein the scheduling information is included in a system information block of the system information.

10. The circuitry for the mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 7 , wherein the second part is transmitted according to the information about the time schedule.

11. The circuitry for the mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 7 , wherein the system information includes minimum system information which includes basic information for initial access to a cell.

12. The circuitry for the mobile telecommunications system entity of claim 11 , wherein the on-demand system information is not included in the minimum system information.

13. A method of operating a mobile telecommunications system entity including at least one entity serving at least one user equipment, comprising:

transmitting scheduling information for on-demand system information, which can be requested by the at least one user equipment,

wherein the scheduling information is divided at least in a first part and a second part,

wherein the first part includes information about a time schedule according to which system information is transmitted and the second part includes scheduling information other than the information about the time schedule, the system information including System Information Block mapping information.

14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:

transmitting the scheduling information included in system information, wherein the scheduling information is included in a system information block of the system information.
