Frequency band allocation in a wireless communication network

摘要

Systems and methods for allocating a frequency band in a wireless communication network are provided. An access node can transmit a first system information message. The first system information message can include a first service identifier associated with a first service and a second service identifier associated with a second service to indicate availability of the first service and the second service over a frequency band. The access node can receive instructions to discontinue transmitting the second service identifier within the first system information message. The access node can transmit a second system information message after receiving instructions to discontinue transmitting the second service identifier. The second system information message can include only the first identifier to indicate availability of only the first service over the frequency band.

1. A method of frequency band allocation in a wireless communication network, comprising:
instructing a first access node to transmit a first system information message, the first system information message comprising a first service identifier associated with a first service and a second service identifier associated with a second service to indicate availability of the first service and the second service over a first frequency band; instructing a second access node to transmit a second system information message, the second system information message comprising a third service identifier associated with the first service and a fourth service identifier associated with the second service to indicate availability of the first service and the second service over a second frequency band; determining at the network node to discontinue transmitting the second service over the first frequency band associated with the first access node and to discontinue transmitting the first service over the second frequency band associated with the second access node; instructing the first access node to transmit a third system information message after the network node determines to discontinue transmitting the second service over the first frequency band, the third system information message comprising only the first service identifier to indicate availability of only the first service over the first frequency band; and instructing the second access node to transmit a fourth system information message after the network node determines to discontinue transmitting the first service over the second frequency band, the fourth system information message comprising only the second service identifier to indicate availability of only the second service over the second frequency band.
