Abstract: The present disclosure relates to determining whether system information can be reused and managing system information in a wireless communication system. A wireless communication device may read and compare a physical cell identity and specific system information of a target component carrier with the physical cell identity and specific system information of a source component carrier to determine whether generic system information needs to be read or can be reused. A base station may determine whether a change in system information impacts generic system information and specific system information. The base station may update a data control variable such that it is synchronized for particular sets of component carriers.

The estimated location may be applied in geographic license checks, network interference checks and/or emergency call registration, for example.
