Mobile communication system
User equipment, an apparatus configured to control user equipment, and a method. The method may include receiving by a user equipment from a base station, a synchronization signal and a master information block, the master information block transmitted at a same transmission cycle as a transmission cycle of the synchronization signal. The method may further include receiving by the user equipment from the base station, first information indicating time domain positions at which the synchronization signal and the master information block are to be transmitted. In addition, the method may include receiving by the user equipment from the base station, second information indicating a periodicity of transmission of the synchronization signal and the master information block. The periodicity indicated by the second information may be different from 40 ms.
1 . A user equipment comprising:
a receiver configured to receive a synchronization signal and a master information block that are broadcast from a base station, the master information block being transmitted at a same transmission cycle as a transmission cycle of the synchronization signal, wherein
the receiver is configured to receive from the base station by dedicated RRC signalling other than broadcasting from the base station, first information indicating time domain positions at which the synchronization signal and the master information block are to be transmitted,
the receiver is configured to receive from the base station by dedicated RRC signalling other than broadcasting from the base station, second information indicating a periodicity of transmission of the synchronization signal and the master information block, and
the periodicity indicated by the second information is different from 40 ms.
2 . An apparatus configured to control a user equipment, the apparatus comprising a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the processor configured to
receive a synchronization signal and a master information block that are broadcast from a base station, the master information block being transmitted at a same transmission cycle as a transmission cycle of the synchronization signal,
receive from the base station by dedicated RRC signalling other than broadcasting from the base station, first information indicating time domain positions at which the synchronization signal and the master information block are to be transmitted, and
receive from the base station by dedicated RRC signalling other than broadcasting from the base station, second information indicating a periodicity of transmission of the synchronization signal and the master information block, and
the periodicity indicated by the second information is different from 40 ms.
3 . A method comprising:
receiving by a user equipment, a synchronization signal and a master information block that are broadcast from a base station, the master information block transmitted at a same transmission cycle as a transmission cycle of the synchronization signal;
receiving by the user equipment from the base station by dedicated RRC signalling other than broadcasting from the base station, first information indicating time domain positions at which the synchronization signal and the master information block are to be transmitted; and
receiving by the user equipment from the base station by dedicated RRC signalling other than broadcasting from the base station, second information indicating a periodicity of transmission of the synchronization signal and the master information block, wherein
the periodicity indicated by the second information is different from 40 ms.
