1. A method comprising:
- detecting start of a system information message transmission window; and
assigning a redundancy version sequence at the start of the transmission window,wherein the assignment includes excluding one or more of the predetermined subframes in even-numbered radio frames if the subframes are within the transmission window, andwherein the assignment includes excluding uplink subframes and multi-cast subframes, andwherein the assignment ensures the redundancy version sequence is continuous over adjacent radio frames, and wherein the redundancy version sequence is calculated according to
