Possible Changes
Logical Channel Mapping (5/5) Common Channels - Downlink
Extended BCCH
The first AGCH/PCH message:
in a common channels
combination can be replaced by a BCCH message:
Bext
called BCCH Extended and used to broadcast System Information.

Extended CCCH
The FCCH and SCH messages:
FS
in a common channels
combination are replaced by dummy bursts if this multiframe is broadcast on TS 2, 4 or 6, in case of high traffic, microcellular or bi-band network.
Dedicated Signaling Channels - Downlink

SMS-CB
The SDCCH message:
D2
in a dedicated signaling channels
combination can be replaced by a CBCH message:
CBCH
used to carry the short message service cell broadcast (SMS-CB).
