Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods for efficiently transmitting system access information that is used by wireless terminals ( 200 ) to access a cell ( 20 ) in a wireless communication network ( 10 ). The system access information may include synchronization signals, system information, or reference signals used for channel estimation. In exemplary embodiments of the disclosure, the access nodes ( 100 ) within the wireless communication network ( 10 ) may be configured to operate in two or more operating modes. The information density of the system access information transmitted by the access node varies depending on the operating mode. For example, the access node ( 100 ) may vary the information density by varying the amount of system access information that is transmitted or the periodicity of the system access information that is transmitted.

Claim (Index 34):
A method implemented by an access node in a cell of a wireless communication network, the method comprising the access node:\n alternating between two or more operating modes including a normal power mode and low power mode; transmitting, in the normal power mode, first system access information with a first information density to wireless terminals in a coverage area of the access node; transmitting, in the low power mode, second system access information with a second information density to the wireless terminals in the coverage area of the access node, the second information density being lower than the first information density; receiving, while in the low power mode, an access request for additional system access information from one of the wireless terminals; and responsive to the access request, sending additional system access information to the access requesting wireless terminal.
