A base station is configured to transmit at least one signal in a first bandwidth portion of a cell, the at least one signal having a primary synchronization signal (PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) and a physical broadcast channel (PBCH). The PBCH including a master information block (MIB), the MIB having an indication of time and frequency resources in relation to the at least one signal to acquire additional system information, the first bandwidth portion having a bandwidth less than a full bandwidth of the cell. The base station is further configured to transmit in time and frequency resources associated with the indication of the time and frequency resources and additional system information. The additional system information indicates a second bandwidth portion of the cell, the acquired additional system information being acquired within the second bandwidth portion.
