Structure of System
Information
System information is used for the network to broadcast network
information to UEs camping on a cell so as to control the behavior of
UEs.
MIB:
When selecting a new cell, the UE reads the MIB
The UE may locate the MIB by predefined scheduling information
The IEs in the MIB includes MIB value tag, PLMN type, PLMN identity,
and SB
SIB:
Contains actual system information,
Consists of system information elements (IEs) with the same purpose
Scheduling information for a system information block may only be
MIB
SB
System Information
Following SIBs are mostly seen in layer 3 messages:
SIB1: Contains the system information for NAS and the timer/counter for
UE
SIB2: Contains the URA(UTRAN Registration area ) information
SIB3: Contains the parameters for cell selection and cell reselection
SIB5: Contains parameters for the common physical channels of the cell
SIB7: Contains the uplink interference level and the refreshing timer for
SIB7
SIB11: Contains measurement controlling information

The bursty nature of packet traffic means that more paging messages are
element involved.
This setting determines how long the UE waits for the RRC
Connection Setup after sending an RRC Connection Setup Request.
T300 can be set to one of the following values: 400, 600, 800,
1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800, 2000, 3000, 4000, 6000, 8000 ms.
of retransmissions of

T312
This setting determines how long the UE waits for an N312 "in-sync" indication
from layer 1 when establishing a dedicated channel and the connection status
isIdle. According to 3GPP TS 25.331 table 10.3.3.44, The value 0 is not used.
T312
This setting determines how long the UE waits for an N312 "in-sync" indication
from layer 1 when establishing a dedicated channel in connected status. According
to 3GPP TS 25.331 table 10.3.3.43, The value 0 is not used.
N312
This setting specifies the number of " in-syncs" required when establishing a
dedicated channel when the connection status isIdle.
N312 can be set to one of the following values: 1, 2, 4, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 400,
600, 800, 1000.

Q-Hyst-2
Description:The hysteresis value of the serving cell ( used for
cell ranking for the serving cell). It is used for WCDMA cells
when qualMeasQuantity is set to CPICH Ec/No.
Range:0 to 40
Default:4
Recommended:4
Resolution:2
Function:Cell Selection & Reselection
Access:Read & Write
Dependencies:Default: qHyst2 = qHyst1
Effect of Change:If reselection hysteresis is set too low, e.g.
reselect away from the current cell, even if there is another cell at a
higher signal level.
Can be set to any even number value between -32 dB and +20 dB,
SIB5
It is used to increase
the transmit power of
the PRACH preamble
when no response is
received from the test
set.
How many times a
preamble shall be
transmitted with
increased UL power
within one cycle.
Preamble-Retrans-Max
Initial RACH Preamble Power = Primary CPICH TX Power
Power Ramp Step and transmit the PRACH again. UE repeat this
process until it gets AICH or it retried the specific number specified in
SIB3.
Mmax: Maximum number of RACH preamble cycles. Defines how many
Preamble-Retrans-Max
Physical Value Range : 1 to 64 times
Parameter Setting : The default value is 8 times.
The product of this parameter and the previous PRACH Power

indBof one AICH relative
to the Primary CPICH
