This message is sent on the PACCH from the mobile station to the network to indicate which SI messages the mobile station has received.
Message type: PACKET SI STATUS
Direction: mobile station to network

Table 11.2.17b.2: Packet SI Status information element details
Global TFI (information element) |
BCCH_CHANGE_MARK (3 bit field) |
Received SI Message List (construction) If the sender of this message has received an SI message which is part of a consistent set of SI messages (see sub-clause 5.5.2.1.4), the Instance Bitmap may indicate which instances of this message type that have been received. |
Received Unknown SI Message List (construction) |
SI_MESSAGE_TYPE (8 bit field) |
MESS_REC (2 bit field) Bit 2 1 0 0 The message type is supported but not received; 0 1 The message type is supported and received; this type of SI message does not exist in multiple instances; 1 0 The message type is supported and instances of the message with the indicated change mark are partially received; 1 1 The message type is supported and all instances of the message are received with the indicated change mark. |
SIX_CHANGE_MARK (3 bit field) For the SI2ter message type, the three bits are used according to the following principles: SI2ter For the SI2quater message type, the mobile station shall include the latest received values of the BA_IND, 3G_BA_IND and MP_CHANGE_MARK fields. The field is coded as follows: Bit For the SI15 message type, the mobile station shall include the three least significant bits of the DM_CHANGE_MARK parameter (i.e., DM_CHANGE_MARK modulo 8). |
SIX_COUNT (4 bit field) For SI18, SI19 and SI20 messages, this field shall be set to 7 if present. For the SI15 message the range is 0 to 3. For the SI2ter message the range is 0 to 7. For the SI2quater message the range is 0 to 15. For the SI2n message the range is 0 to 15. |
Instance bitmap (1 – 16 bit field) The most significant bit of this bitmap (bit N) refers to the message instance with the SIX index parameter = N-1, where N is the number of instances of the particular message type (SIX count + 1). The least significant bit of this bitmap (bit 1) refers to the message instance with the SI index parameter = 0. Each bit position is coded: 0 Message instance is not received; |
ADDITIONAL_MSG_TYPE (1 bit field) |
PSCSI_SUPPORT (1 bit field) 0 PACKET SERVING CELL SI message not supported The MS shall set the PSCSI_SUPPORT bit to "1" in this revision of the specification. This field shall always be present in the PACKET SI STATUS message. If not present, ‘0’ shall be assumed by the receiver |
PS_REL_REQ (1 bit field) 0 The mobile station does not request the release of the RR connection and packet resources. |
