PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect a system information block (SIB) within a heterogeneous network.SOLUTION: Methods for facilitating detection of a system information block include selecting a type of scheduling information pertaining to the system information block, and associating a known parameter with the type of scheduling information. Here, decoding of the system information block is facilitated by an association of the known parameter with the type of scheduling information independent of a physical downlink control channel transmission. The system information block is then transmitted to a wireless terminal. The wireless terminal then decodes the SIB by deriving the scheduling information from the known parameters, without having to decode a physical downlink control channel. |
