Communication devices (such as user equipment (UE)) communicate with a base station (such as an eNodeB) using radio frames made up of a sequence of subframes and a frequency band made up of frequency subbands. The base station identifies a subframe in which a broadcast message (such as a random access (RA) or paging message), carrying information for at least one communication device, is to be broadcast: transmits, in a control channel (such as an evolved physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH)) in a frequency subband in a current subframe that precedes the identified subframe, control information to identify said subframe in which said broadcast message is to be broadcast; and transmits the broadcast message in the identified subframe. The communications device may be a reduced bandwidth machine type communication (MTC) device. |
