A system and method for valid subframe determination between a base station and user equipment based on transmission of an additional system information block are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method performed by a communication device includes: receiving a SystemInformationBlockType1 message in a first subframe of a frame from a communication node; receiving the SystemInformationBlockType1 message in a second subframe of the frame from the communication node based on communication device capability for processing the SystemInformationBlockType1 message in the second subframe; sending a radio resource control signal to the communication node based on the communication device capability for processing the SystemInformationBlockType1 message in the second subframe; and utilizing the second subframe as either a valid subframe or an invalid subframe based on the communication device capability for processing the SystemInformationBlockType1 message in the second subframe.
