8.1.10 Broadcast of system information

34.123-13GPPPart 1: Protocol conformance specificationRelease 15TSUser Equipment (UE) conformance specification

8.1.10.1 Dynamic change of segmentation, concatenation & scheduling and handling of unsupported information blocks

8.1.10.1.1 Definition

8.1.10.1.2 Conformance requirement

1. The RRC layer in the UE shall perform re-assembly of segments. All segments belonging to the same master information block, scheduling block or system information block shall be assembled in ascending order with respect to the segment index. When all segments of the master information block, scheduling block or a system information block have been received, the UE shall perform decoding of the complete master information block, scheduling block or system information block.

2. For all system information blocks or scheduling blocks that are supported by the UE referenced in the master information block or the scheduling blocks, the UE shall perform the following actions:

……..

– read and store the IEs of that system information block;

NOTE: There are options with and without scheduling blocks.

3. For system information blocks, not supported by the UE…….

– skip reading this system information block;

– skip monitoring changes to this system information block.

4. However, to enable future introduction of new system information blocks, the UE shall also be able to receive system information blocks other than the ones indicated within the scheduling information. The UE may ignore contents of such system information block.

Reference

3GPP TS 25.331 clause 8.1.1.1.4, 8.1.1.5 and 8.1.1.6.

8.1.10.1.3 Test Purpose

1. To verify that dynamic change of System Information is identified, new information read and used.

2. To verify that the UE can support all segment types and "all" segment combinations.

3. To verify that the UE can dynamically use different configurations

4. To verify that the UE properly uses combinations of Default and assigned values.

NOTE: There are 4 segment types and 11 different SYSTEM INFORMATION segment combinations to interpret when re-assembling segments. There are many alternative SIB position offsets and repetition rates.

The allowed segment types are:

– First segment

– Subsequent segment

– Last segment

– Complete

The allowed segment combinations are:

1. No segment

2. First segment

3. Subsequent segment

4. Last segment

5. Last segment + First segment

6. Last segment + one or several Complete

7. Last segment + one or several Complete + First segment

8. One or several Complete

9. One or several Complete + First segment

10. One Complete of size 215 to 226 (not fully tested)

11. Last segment of size 215 to 222

NOTE: Segment combinations 10 and 11 are more difficult to test as they require SIBs of a very specific size.

8.1.10.1.4 Method of test

Alternate two sets of System Information and generate a call after one or the other set has been broadcasted.

These two sets of System Information are based on the System Information specified in 34.108, section 6.

A "Minimum" configuration and a "Maximum" configuration of System Information are defined. The "Minimum" configuration does not contain all of the Information Blocks defined for Configuration 1 in section 6 of 34.108. On the other hand the "Maximum" configuration, defined by the scheduling information in Table 2, contains extra optional information blocks to ensure that the SIB configuration is consistent with the defined scheduling The contents of the SIBs remains the same (the contents of SIB11 changes for the "Maximum" configuration) while the contents of the MIB and SB is altered depending on the nature of the test, i.e. the schedule changes between the "Minimum" and "Maximum" configurations.

The four segment types and the eleven segment combinations are tested using the two configurations.

NOTE: The decoding of system information in the UE is only measurable by functional tests. A large number of functions utilize system information. An extensive test of the system information decoding thus creates a large number of functional tests, which is impractical. This test specification uses a "sample test", where only a few functions are invoked.

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 2 cells (Cell 1, Cell 2), settings for Cell 1 and Cell 2 according to TS 34.108, clause 6.1.5, table 6.1.2 (Cell 1 configured as the serving cell). The Minimum Configuration System Information is being broadcast in Cell 1. The Maximum Configuration System Information is being broadcast in Cell 2.

UE: Idle state (state 2 or state 3 or state 7) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108 with a CN UE identity (set to IMSI), depending on the CN domain(s) supported by the UE.

Test procedure

Table 8.1.10.1-1 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells.

Columns marked T0 denote the initial conditions.

The UE is in C1 in Camped Normally state. UE starts establishing a MO call/session. SS disconnects the call. UE shall enter IDLE state. The SS waits for a 2 sec interval and then sets the Cell Barred Indicator in SIB3 to "Barred". The SS notifies the UE of the changed System Information by sending the Paging Type 1 message including the IE BCCH Modification Info indicating that new System Information is available. SS applies the downlink power settings, according to the values in the columns “T1” of table 8.1.10.1-1. Based on the updated information in SIB3, the UE performs a cell reselection to Cell 2. The UE reads the System Information in Cell 2, i.e. Maximum Configuration System Information. UE starts establishing a MO call/session.

NOTE: If the UE fails the test because of a failure to reselect to a right cell, then the operator may re-run the test.

Specific message content for "Minimum" configuration

The Minimum configuration is the same as the Configuration 1 System Information on 34.108, section 6 with some differences:

– Only SIB1, SIB3, SIB5/SIB5bis, SIB7, SIB11 are used, i.e. the Minimum number of SIBs is used.

– No SB is used; all scheduling information is contained in the MIB. The contents of this changed MIB are shown below.

– A different schedule is used. Details below.

– SIB11 lists eight cells (one serving cell and seven neighbouring cells). Only the first two of these are considered relevant.

Other characteristics of the Minimum configuration are:

– An unknown future System Information Block (SIB-F1) is included. SIB-F1 is used to test segment combination 10. However, it should be noted that, based on the scheduling information in the MIB, UEs may decide not to read segment combinations associated with SIBs that they do not support/comprehend. Hence, the use of SIB-F1 does not fully cover the verification of combinations 10. The tests really just verify that UE ignores it. There is no real verification that the UE can support segment combinations 10.

The following tables show (based on SIB_REP and SIB_POS in the MIB and SB) the schedule used for the Minimum configuration.

Specific message content for "Maximum" configuration

The Maximum configuration is the same as the Configuration 1 System Information on 34.108, section 6 with some differences:

– A different schedule is used. Details below.

– SIB11 lists eight cells (one serving cell and seven neighbouring cells). Only the first two of these are considered relevant. It should also include some of the optional IE’s to fit the scheduling information for maximum configuration.

– SIB6 and SIB12 includes some of the optional IEs even if having same values as correspondent IEs in SIB5 and SIB11 respectively (to facilitate implementation of the test case for the Maximum configuration) to fit the scheduling information for maximum configuration.

Other characteristics of the Maximum configuration are:

– one "unknown future" block (SIB-F2) is included. This SIB is concatenated with another SIB and is used to verify that the UE can receive an Information Block that it does not support and still process the Information Blocks that it does support in the correct way.

– The test of the segment combination 9 is verified if the UE is able to read SIB7 and the first segment of SIB5 in position 4.

– The test of the segment combination 11 is verified if the UE is able to read the last segment of SIB 5 / SIB 5bis. The SS ensures that this last segment shall have the length between 215 and 222 bits. Depending on the length of SIB 5 / SIB 5bis, the combination 11 occurs either in SIB_position 6, or in the most cases in SIB_position 10

The following tables show (based on SIB_REP and SIB_POS in the MIB and SB) the schedule used for the Maximum configuration.

8.1.10.2 BCCH Mapping on HS-DSCH for Transmitting System Information Change Indication

8.1.10.2.1 Definition

All UEs which support FDD and HS-PDSCH in CELL_FACH, except UEs that receive Master information block value tag autonomously before or parallel to receiving SYSTEM INFORMATION CHANGE INDICATION in SYSTEM INFORMATION BLOCK TYPE 5 / SYSTEM INFORMATION BLOCK TYPE 5bis.

          1. Conformance requirement

Upon modifications of system information blocks using value tags, UTRAN should notify the new value tag for the master information block in the IE "BCCH modification info", transmitted in the following way:

1> for FDD and 1.28 Mcps TDD, to reach UEs in CELL_FACH state with HS-DSCH assigned and in CELL_PCH with HS-DSCH and dedicated H-RNTI assigned, the IE "BCCH modification info" is contained in a SYSTEM INFORMATION CHANGE INDICATION message transmitted on the BCCH mapped on the HS-PDSCH indicated with the first indexed HS-SCCH code by the BCCH specific H-RNTI.

Upon reception of a PAGING TYPE 1 message or a SYSTEM INFORMATION CHANGE INDICATION message containing the IE "BCCH modification info" containing the IE "MIB value tag" but not containing the IE "BCCH modification time", the UE shall perform actions as specified in subclause 8.1.1.7.3

The UE shall:

1> compare the value of IE "MIB value tag" in the IE "BCCH modification info" with the value tag stored for the master information block in variable VALUE_TAG.

1> if the value tags differ:

2> read the master information block on BCH;

2> if the value tag of the master information block in the system information is the same as the value in IE "MIB value tag" in "BCCH modification info" but different from the value tag stored in the variable VALUE_TAG:

3> perform actions as specified in subclause 8.1.1.5.

2> if the value tag of the master information block in the system information is the same as the value tag stored in the variable VALUE_TAG:

3> for the next occurrence of the master information block:

4> perform actions as specified in subclause 8.1.1.7.3 again.

2> if the value tag of the master information block in the system information is different from the value tag stored in the variable VALUE_TAG, and is different from the value in IE "MIB value tag" in "BCCH modification info":

3> perform actions as specified in subclause 8.1.1.5;

3> if (VTCI-VTMIB) mod 8 < 4, where VTCI is the value tag in the IE "MIB value tag" in "BCCH modification info" and VTMIB is the value tag of the master information block in the system information:

4> for the next occurrence of the master information block:

5> perform actions as specified in subclause 8.1.1.7.3 again.

Whenever the variable HS_DSCH_RECEPTION_CELL_FACH_STATE is set to TRUE, the UE shall:

1> and for FDD, for BCCH reception perform HS-DSCH reception procedures by listening to the first indexed HS-SCCH code listed in the IE "HS-SCCH channelization code" with "BCCH specific H-RNTI" as received in IE "HS-DSCH common system information".

The SS transmits a SYSTEM INFORMATION CHANGE INDICATION message to the UE, This message is transmitted using HS-SCCH code "16/11"and “16/12”. After an elapsed time, required to read the new HS-SCCH channelization code in system information, the SS transmits a UE CAPABILITY ENQUIRY message on RB1 over HS-DSCH using HS-SCCH code "16/11"and “16/12”. The UE does not respond to this. SS transmits a UE CAPABILITY ENQUIRY message on RB2 over HS-DSCH using HS-SCCH code "16/9"and “16/10”. After receiving this message the UE should transmit a UE CAPABILITY INFORMATION message on the UL DCCH which indicates the requested capabilities. The SS transmits a UE CAPABILITY INFORMATION CONFIRM message to the UE to complete the UE capability enquiry procedure.
