Abstract
Methods, systems, and storage media are described for the transmission of system information in narrowband Internet-of-Things (NB-IoT) systems. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Claims21
-20. (canceled)
One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media storing instructions, that, when executed by one or more processors, cause an evolved NodeB (eNB) to:
- generate a system information block type 1-narrowband (SIB1-NB) message;
- and
- encode the SIB1-NB message for transmission to a user equipment (UE) via a narrow band Internet of things (NB-IoT) physical resource block (PRB) of an anchor channel that includes a narrow band primary synchronization signal (NPSS), a narrow band secondary synchronization signal (NSSS), or a narrowband physical broadcast channel (NPBCH).
An apparatus comprising:
- memory;
- and
- processing circuitry, coupled with the memory, to:
- retrieve system information block type 1-narrowband (SIB1-NB) information stored in the memory;
- generate a SIB1-NB message that includes the SIB1-NB information;
- and
- encode the SIB1-NB message for repeated transmission to a user equipment (UE), wherein the SIB1-NB message is transmitted every eight subframes within a 640 ms window.
