Abstract: A base station sends system information to user equipment based on the user equipment detecting network coverage provided by the base station. The system information may include one or more network signaling flags indicative of a legacy regulation and an updated regulation (or a legacy version of a regulation and an updated version of the regulation) for operating on a frequency band. The user equipment transmits an indication to the base station as to whether it supports the legacy regulation and/or the updated regulation. The base station configures uplink and/or downlink resources on the frequency band for the user equipment based on the regulation indicated. The user equipment and the base station then communicate using the configured resources on the frequency band.
