METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING CALL SETUP DELAY BY IMPROVED SIB7 AND SIB14 SCHEDULING

摘要

An apparatus and method for reducing call setup time of a wireless communication device including determining empty slots on a Common Control Channel where no SIB blocks or MIB blocks are scheduled therein and scheduling SIB7 or SIB 14 blocks in the empty slots to reduce call setup time. In one aspect, the uplink interference level contained in the SIB7 or SIB14 block is piggy-backed on SIB blocks other than SIB7 or SIB14 blocks.
