## Abstract

The present invention provides an activation system information transmission method, apparatus, and device. The method includes: receiving, by UE, a first system message sent by a base station, where the first system message includes activation indication information and a change indication tag, the activation indication information is used to indicate whether a function indicated in an activation system message is activated, and the change indication tag is used to indicate whether scheduling information of the activation system message changes; obtaining, by the UE, first scheduling information of the activation system message according to the activation indication information and the change indication tag; and reading the activation system message according to the first scheduling information, and selecting, according to the activation indication information and the change indication tag, different manners to obtain the first scheduling information of the activation system message.

obtaining, by the UE, first scheduling information of the activation system message according to the activation indication information and the change indication tag; and
reading, by the UE, the activation system message according to the first scheduling information.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the reading, by the UE, the activation system message according to the first scheduling information comprises:
obtaining, by the UE, an updated system message at any time according to the first scheduling information.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein
the change indication tag is further used to indicate a change of a second system message, wherein the second system message comprises the scheduling information of the activation system message.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein
the change indication tag comprised in the first system message is not used to indicate a change of the activation system message.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the obtaining, by the UE, first scheduling information of the activation system message according to the activation indication information and the change indication tag comprises:
detecting, by the UE, whether the scheduling information of the activation system message is locally stored;
if the scheduling information of the activation system message is locally stored, determining, by the UE according to the activation indication information, whether the function indicated in the activation system message is activated;
if the function indicated in the activation system message is activated, determining, by the UE according to the change indication tag, whether the scheduling information of the activation system message changes; and
if the scheduling information of the activation system message does not change, using the locally stored scheduling information of the activation system message as the first scheduling information.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5, wherein the method further comprises:
if the scheduling information of the activation system message is not locally stored, receiving, by the UE, a second system message sent by the base station, wherein the second system message comprises the first scheduling information of the activation system message and scheduling information of a conventional system message.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5, wherein the method further comprises:
if the scheduling information of the activation system message is not locally stored, and the function indicated in the activation system message is activated, receiving, by the UE, a second system message sent by the base station, wherein the second system message comprises the first scheduling information of the activation system message and scheduling information of a conventional system message.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5, wherein the method further comprises:
if the scheduling information of the activation system message changes, receiving, by the UE, a second system message sent by the base station, wherein the second system message comprises the first scheduling information of the activation system message and scheduling information of a conventional system message.

### Claim 9 (depends on 6)

The method according to claim 6, wherein the method further comprises:
updating, by the UE, the locally stored scheduling information of the activation system message to the first scheduling information.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein if the change indication tag is a value tag, the determining, by the UE according to the change indication tag, whether the scheduling information of the activation system message changes comprises:
if the UE detects that the value tag changes, determining that the scheduling information of the activation system message changes; or, if the UE detects that the value tag does not change, determining that the scheduling information of the activation system information does not change.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein the activation system message comprises an access control message.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The method according to claim 11, wherein

the change indication tag is further used to indicate a change of a second system message, wherein the second system message comprises the scheduling information of the activation system message.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The apparatus according to claim 13, wherein
the change indication tag comprised in the first system message is not used to indicate a change of the activation system message.

### Claim 17 (depends on 13)

The apparatus according to claim 13, wherein:
the processor, configured to detect whether the scheduling information of the activation system message is locally stored; and configured to: if the scheduling information of the activation system message is locally stored, determine, according to the activation indication information, whether the function indicated in the activation system message is activated;
