USE OF WAIT PERIOD TO OBTAIN ON-DEMAND SYSTEM INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- transmitting, by a user device to a base station in a wireless network, a system information request for on-demand system information during a random access procedure, the system information request being a request for one or more parameters that enable the user device to communicate in the wireless network;
receiving, by the user device from the base station, an indication of a wait period in which the user device waits before obtaining the on-demand system information;
waiting, by the user device, a time duration during the wait period; and
monitoring, by the user device after expiration of the wait period, a system information window in which a system information message having the on-demand system information is broadcasted by the base station.

Abstract
According to an example implementation, a method may include transmitting, by a user device to a base station in a wireless network, a system information request for on-demand system information during a random access procedure, where the system information request is a request for one or more parameters that enable the user device to communicate in the wireless network, receiving, by the user device from the base station, an indication of a wait period in which the user device waits before obtaining the on-demand system information, waiting, by the user device, a time duration during the wait period, and monitoring, by the user device after expiration of the wait period, a system information window in which a system information message having the on-demand system information is broadcasted by the base station.

17. A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium and storing executable code that, when executed by at least one processor, is configured to cause the at least one processor to:
-
receive, by a base station from a user device in a wireless network, a system information request for on-demand system information during a random access procedure, the system information request being a request for one or more parameters that enable the user device to communicate in the wireless network; determine, by a base station, a delay condition for transmitting system information messages to one or more user devices; transmit, by the base station to the user device, an indication of a wait period in which the base station waits before broadcasting a system information message having the on-demand system information in response to the determination of the delay condition; and broadcast, by the base station to the user device, the system information message during a system information window after the wait period. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
