Abstract:
Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to receive system information change notifications from an eNodeB is disclosed. The UE can receive one or more system information (SI) change notifications that indicate a change has occurred in one or more system information blocks (SIBs). The UE can receive a SIB1 that is associated with a value tag, and the SIB1 can include a bit-map that indicates which of the one or more SIBs include a change. The UE can compare the value tag associated with the SIB1 with a value tag stored at the UE. The UE can obtain scheduling information for the one or more SIBs that include a change according to the bitmap when the value tag associated with the SIB1 does not equal to the value tag stored at the UE. The UE can retrieve the SIBs that include a change using the scheduling information.
