The present invention provides a broadcast channel signal, a wireless communication device and method for transmitting broadcast channel information, where an invariant subportion of a variant portion of the broadcast channel information is separated from the variant subportion of the variant portion and combined with the invariant portion, and encoded separately from the variant subportion. Both encoded portions are transmitted and decoded by a wireless communication device, which uses subsequent transmissions of the broadcast channel information to assist in the decoding in the event the broadcast channel information for a particular transmission frame of a transmission interval cannot be decoded. If the variant subportion cannot be decoded, then using one or more of a set of prestored possible matches defining anticipated bit differences, between multiple successive transmissions, based upon the relative transmission sequence, which can be negated as part of attempting to decode and combine the received information for the multiple received frames.
