Claim 14:
15. A method of wireless communication performed by an aerial user equipment (UE) in a mobile network, comprising:
receiving, from the mobile network, first system information corresponding to an aerial cell of the mobile network or a cell having at least one aerial sector, the aerial cell or the at least one aerial sector being formed by one or more uptilt beams of a base station of the mobile network, the first system information being separate from second system information corresponding to a terrestrial cell of the mobile network, the terrestrial cell being formed by one or more downtilt beams of the base station, wherein the first system information comprises a first portion of a plurality of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs), the first portion of the plurality of SSBs being configured for the aerial cell or for the at least one aerial sector, and the second system information comprises a second portion of the plurality of SSBs, and wherein receiving the first system information comprises:
receiving a first SSB of the plurality of SSBs, the first SSB having been transmitted a first power level; and
receiving a second SSB of the plurality of SSBs, the second SSB having been transmitted a second power level, the first power level being different than the second power level;

performing, according to the first system information, a random access channel (RACH) procedure with the mobile network; and
establishing, via the aerial cell or the at least one aerial sector, a communications link with the mobile network.
