Method and apparatus for receiving system information in the wireless communication

A user equipment configured to receive system information in wireless communication, the user equipment comprising:

• at least one transmitter and at least one receiver;
• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising:
• detecting a first synchronization signal block (SSB) that includes a synchronization signal (SS) and a physical broadcasting channel (PBCH) carrying minimum system information;
• and
• based on absence of any remaining minimum system information (RMSI) associated with the first SSB:
• determining that there is no SSB having an associated RMSI that is transmitted within a frequency range, based on RMSI scheduling relevant information included in the minimum system information, wherein the RMSI scheduling relevant information relates to the frequency range.

A base station configured to transmit system information in wireless communication, the base station comprising:

• at least one transmitter and at least one receiver;
• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising:
• generating minimum system information, wherein the minimum system information includes i) information regarding absence of any remaining minimum system information (RMSI) associated with a first synchronization signal block (SSB) and ii) RMSI scheduling relevant information relating to a frequency range where the base station provides no SSB having an associated RMSI;
• and
• transmitting the first SSB that includes a synchronization signal (SS) and a physical broadcasting channel (PBCH) carrying the minimum system information.
