Patent ID: 8861484

Claim:
A method for transmitting system information, SI, used for transmitting general SI by a base station, wherein the general SI comprises an SI- 1 and an other SI, wherein the method comprises: setting a sub-frame for transmitting the other SI and a sub-frame for transmitting the SI- 1 in different time domains, wherein a sequence of scheduling information of the other SI is configured in the SI- 1 ; according to a predetermined relationship, determining a plurality of predetermined radio frames and one or more the other SIs corresponding to each of the predetermined radio frames, wherein the predetermined relationship is that the result of the system frame number of the predetermined radio frame MOD the scheduling period of the one or more the other Sis corresponding thereto is 0; according to the sequence of the scheduling information of the other SI configured in the SI- 1 , transmitting the SI- 1 and the determined one or more the other SIs from the predetermined radio frames; wherein in the case that a transmission window of the SI- 1 overlaps with a transmission window of the other SI, the SI- 1 and the other SI are transmitted simultaneously in the transmission window of the SI- 1 ; wherein in the case that an overlap of transmission windows between more than one other SI and the SI- 1 occurs, the other SI with a prior transmission sequence is transmitted at first.
