Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive synchronization messages from a public cell that indicates synchronization information. The UE may input information received from the one or more synchronization messages into one or more functions provisioned at the UE to derive a set of control resources associated with a private cell. The UE may monitor the set of control resources to receive encrypted system information from the private cell. The UE may decrypt the system information of the private cell by deriving a cell specific broadcast key associated with the private cell. In some examples, the UE may derive the cell specific broadcast key based on the one or more functions provisioned at the UE. As such, the UE may transmit to the private cell via the set of control resources a random access message indicating successful decryption of the system information.
