Abstract
A method and apparatus can be configured to transmit broadcast system information to a user equipment. The broadcast system information can comprise a frequency band indicator that is used for a plurality of instances. Each instance of the plurality of instances can correspond to a separate network-signaling value.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- transmitting broadcast system information to a user equipment, wherein the broadcast system information comprises a frequency band indicator that is used for a plurality of instances, wherein the plurality of instances corresponds to a plurality of separate network-signaling values, and wherein at least one of the plurality of separate network-signaling values corresponds to a frequency band without a previously defined network-signaling value;
- and
- receiving an indication from the user equipment that the user equipment supports at least one of the plurality of network-signaling values corresponding to the frequency band without the previously defined network-signaling value.
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to:
- transmit broadcast system information to a user equipment, wherein the broadcast system information comprises a frequency band indicator that is used for a plurality of instances, wherein the plurality of instances corresponds to a plurality of separate network-signaling values, and wherein at least one of the plurality of separate network-signaling values corresponds to a frequency band without a previously defined network-signaling value;
- and
- receive an indication from the user equipment that the user equipment supports at least one of the plurality of network-signaling values corresponding to the frequency band without the previously defined network-signaling value.
