Method and apparatus for signaling of system information

Abstract

A method and apparatus provide for signaling of system information. Minimum system information including at least cell access information to establish access with a cell can be received, the minimum system information also including at least one indication indicating whether particular system information listed in scheduling information in the minimum system information is being broadcasted or not being broadcasted. A system information request message requesting transmission of non-minimum system information if the at least one indication indicates the non-minimum system information is not being broadcasted can be transmitted, where the non-minimum system information is not included in the minimum system information. The non-minimum system information either in response to the transmitting of the system information request message or in response to the at least one indication indicating whether particular system information is being broadcasted can be received.
