## Abstract

A method for a terminal to receive system information in a wireless communication system on the basis of beam information, and a device supporting the method are provided. The method may comprise: a step of selecting a beam; a step of transmitting, to a base station, a system information request including a random access channel (RACH) preamble corresponding to the selected beam; a step of receiving a response to the RACH preamble from the base station, wherein the response to the RACH preamble includes beam information indicating a specific beam; and a step of receiving system information requested by the system information request, via the specific beam indicated by the beam information.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for receiving, by a wireless device, system information in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, information related to (i) a plurality of beams and (ii) a system information request period;
selecting a beam from the plurality of beams based on the information related to the plurality of beams;
transmitting, to the base station and based on the information related to the system information request period, a random access preamble corresponding to the selected beam to request the system information from the base station; and
receiving a response to the random access preamble from the base station, wherein the response to the random access preamble includes the requested system information.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein quality of the selected beam is above a threshold.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the response to the random access preamble is received based on a system information reception period.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The method of claim 3, wherein the system information request period and the system information reception period are not overlapped with each other.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising:
receiving system information scheduling information from the base station; and
determining whether to request the system information based on the received system information scheduling information.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, further comprising:
selecting the random access preamble from a plurality of random access preambles based on the selected beam.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the response to the random access preamble is received through the selected beam.

### Claim at position 8

8-14. (canceled)

### Claim 15

A wireless device for receiving system information in a wireless communication system, the wireless device comprising:
at least one transceiver; at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a base station, information related to (i) a plurality of beams and (ii) a system information request period
selecting a beam from the plurality of beams based on the information related to the plurality of beams;
transmitting, to the base station and based on the information related to the system information request period, a random access preamble corresponding to the selected beam to request the system information from the base station; and
receiving a response to the random access preamble from the base station, wherein the response to the random access preamble includes the requested system information.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The wireless device of claim 15, wherein quality of the selected beam is above a threshold.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The wireless device of claim 15, wherein the response to the random access preamble is received based on a system information reception period.

### Claim 18 (depends on 17)

The wireless device of claim 17, wherein the system information request period and the system information reception period are not overlapped with each other.

### Claim 19 (depends on 15)

The wireless device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving system information scheduling information from the base station; and
determining whether to request the system information based on the received system information scheduling information.

### Claim 20 (depends on 15)

The wireless device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise:
selecting the random access preamble from a plurality of random access preambles based on the selected beam.

### Claim 21 (depends on 15)

The wireless device of claim 15, wherein the response to the random access preamble is received through the selected beam.

### Claim 22

(canceled)
