This message is sent optionally on the SACCH by the network to mobile stations within the cell giving information on the extension of the BCCH allocation in the neighbour cells. See table 9.1.38.1.
A GSM 900 mobile station which only supports the primary GSM band P-GSM 900 (cf. 3GPP TS 45.005) may ignore this message, see sub-clause 3.2.2.1.
When received (and not ignored) this information must be used as the list of neighbouring cells to be reported on. Any change in the neighbour cell description must overwrite any old data held by the mobile station. The mobile station must, with the exception stated above, analyse all correctly received system information type 5bis messages. This message has a L2 Pseudo Length of 18.
