Abstract
A method for managing dedicated and common system information that includes receiving a first message comprising a first set of parameters associated with system information. The first set of parameters have a first validity. The method also includes deriving a stored set of parameters based, at least in part, on the first set of parameters and its associated validity. The method additionally includes receiving a second message comprising a second set of parameters associated with system information. The second set of parameters have a second validity. The method further includes, upon the second validity superseding the first validity, modifying the stored set of parameters.
Claims19
A method for managing system information, the method comprising:
- receiving a first message comprising a first set of parameters associated with a first type of system information, the first set of parameters having a first validity, and the first type of system information is common system information or dedicated system information;
- deriving a stored set of parameters based, at least in part, on the first set of parameters and its associated validity;
- receiving a second message comprising a second set of parameters associated with a second type of system information, the second set of parameters having a second validity, and the second type of system information is common system information or dedicated system information wherein the first and second type of system information are different;
- and
- upon the second validity superseding the first validity, modifying the stored set of parameters.
A user equipment (UE) for managing system information, the UE comprising:
- interface circuitry configured to receive a first message comprising a first set of parameters associated with a first type of system information, the first set of parameters having a first validity, and the first type of system information is common system information or dedicated system information;
- processing circuitry coupled to the interface circuitry and configured to derive a stored set of parameters based, at least in part, on the first set of parameters and its associated validity;
- wherein the interface circuitry is further configured to receive a second message comprising a second set of parameters associated with a second type of system information, the second set of parameters having a second validity, and the second type of system information is common system information or dedicated system information wherein the first and second type of system information are different;
- wherein, upon the second validity superseding the first validity, the processing circuitry is further configured to modifying the stored set of parameters;
- power circuitry configured to provide power to the processing circuitry and the interface circuitry.
A system for managing dedicated and common system information, the system comprising:
- a network node configured to transmit a first message comprising a first set of parameters associated with a first type of system information, the first set of parameters having a first validity, and the first type of system information is common system information or dedicated system information;
- a user equipment configured to receive the first message and derive a stored set of parameters based, at least in part, on the first set of parameters and its associated validity;
- wherein the network node is further configured to transmit a second message comprising a second set of parameters associated with a second type of system information, the second set of parameters having a second validity, and the second type of system information is common system information or dedicated system information wherein the first and second type of system information are different;
- wherein the user equipment is further configured to receive the second message and, upon the second validity superseding the first validity, modify the stored set of parameters.
