METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING ADVANCED LONG TERM EVOLUTION SYSTEM INFORMATION

摘要

A method and apparatus for processing advanced long term evolution (LTE-A) system information (SI) are described. When a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is in an idle mode/state, an LTE-A SI broadcast may be received on at least one downlink (DL) anchor carrier, including a physical DL shared channel (PDSCH) having paging message content. At least one SI-change parameter included in the paging message content may be decoded and processed. The SI-change parameter may include a flag used to indicate an SI change on a logical partition, (a primary or a secondary SI broadcast group information change). When the WTRU is in a connected mode/state, an LTE-A SI-CHANGE-radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) transmission may be received during a modification period (MP), and an SI change may be performed during a subsequent MP. At least one SI-change parameter included in the SI-CHANGE-RNTI transmission may be decoded and processed.
