Introduction
• To maintain normal network operations, ABS broadcasts and
adjusts its configuration via system information updating.
– The critical information is broadcasted via P-SFH/S-SFH IEs in
802.16m.
– The critical information includes a minimal set of time critical system
configuration information and parameters needed for the AMSs to
complete cell selection and system access in a power efficient manner.
• But, there is no harmonized update method for the system
information. This contribution lists some problems to be
considered for the system information update and the
solutions.
Problem (1/2)
• Problem 1:
– When the system information is changed, it is generally required that AMSs
can apply the changed system information as soon as possible, and make the
time interval between the system information changing and taking effect short
as possible. But, the time interval may be also longer if S-SFH SPx scheduling
periodicity is much longer, such as 160ms; furthermore, the correct decoding
probability of the long period S-SFH SP will be smaller than that of the short
period S-SFH SP.
• Problem 2:
– For making each SP update process simple and independent, the system
information in the different SP should have no strong association. But, the
resource mapping indication information in SP1 and SP2 has too much
association. For example, assuming that initial “DFPSC” value in SP2 is 2, and
initial “DCASi” value in SP1 also is 2, and if “DFPSC” value is changed into 1
subsequently, then it’s impossible that “DCASi” value remains unchanged.
That means, in this case, the information fields related to resource mapping in
SP1 and SP2 need to take effect simultaneously.
Problem (2/2)
• Problem 3:
– In sleep mode, P802.16m/D3 has description as follows:
• During Listening Window, the AMS is expected to receive all DL
transmissions same way as in the state of normal operations. AMS shall
ensure that it has up-to-date system information for proper operation.
• If the AMS detects that the information it has is not up-to-date, then it shall
not transmit in the Listening Window until it receives the up-to-date system
information.
– For an AMS in sleep mode, if it doesn't receive the updated system
information when it wakes up, the normal operation will be affected.
Therefore, a mechanism shall be needed to ensure that an AMS can get
up-to-date system information as soon as possible after it wakes up.
• Problem 4:
– If an AMS can’t decode the SFH correctly, there’s no special text to
specify the possible operation.
Solution (1/2)
• Solution to Problem 1:
– During the update process, the update method is same for each SP.
• ABS may adjust the SP scheduling periodicity, and it can equal the minimal
SP scheduling periodicity supported by ABS.
• After the updated SP has taken effect, ABS can restore the adjusted SP
scheduling periodicity to the original periodicity before the update process.
[Refer to Figure 1 and 2]
– Advantage:
• This method ensures that an AMS can acquire and apply the up-to-date
system information as soon as possible, and the SP with different
periodicities may have the same decoding probability for an AMS.
• Solution to Problem 2:
– All indication information for the resource mapping is packed into one
SP1 or SP2 (Refer to the C802.16m-09/2894).
– Advantage:
• Make each SP’s transmission period and update process independent.
Solution (2/2)
• Solution to Problem 3:
– In sleep mode, if the S-SFH SP has changed and taken effect during the
sleep window, the changed S-SFH SP should be immediately sent in the
first or second SFH subframe, or the first SFH subframe without any SSFH SP after the AMS wakes up. [Refer to Figure 3 and 4]
– Advantage:
• Guarantee the normal operation after a sleep AMS wakes up.
• Solution to Problem 4:
– If the time of continuous decoding errors for P-SFH or S-SFH is more
than N (TBD), the AMS will perform reentry process.
– Advantage:
• Faster the reentry process if an AMS can’t decode SFH correctly.

Proposed Text
• Add the new text in page 285, line 62 in section 16.2.23
During the update process, ABS adjust the SP2/3 scheduling periodicity, and it can
decrease the SP2/3 scheduling periodicity to the minimum value supported by
ABS, which depends on the channel bandwidth, scheduling periodicity and
transmission repetition time. After the changed SP has taken effect, ABS can restore
the adjusted SP scheduling periodicity to the original periodicity before the update
process.
In sleep mode, if the S-SFH SP has changed and taken effect during the sleep
window, the changed S-SFH SP should be immediately sent in the first or second
SFH subframe, or the first SFH subframe without any S-SFH SP after the AMS
wakes up.
If the time of continuous decoding errors for P-SFH or S-SFH is more than N[=2],
it will perform reentry process.
