FACILITATING DECODING SYSTEM INFORMATION BLOCKS IN A HETEROGENEOUS NETWORK

摘要

Aspects are disclosed for detecting a system information block (SIB) within a heterogeneous network. In one aspect, a type of scheduling information pertaining to an SIB is selected, and a parameter known to a wireless terminal is associated with the type of scheduling information. The wireless terminal then decodes the SIBby deriving the scheduling information from the known parameters, without having to decode a Physical Downlink Control Channel.
