Abstract
Systems and methods for allocating a frequency band in a wireless communication network are provided. An access node can transmit a first system information message. The first system information message can include a first service identifier associated with a first service and a second service identifier associated with a second service to indicate availability of the first service and the second service over a frequency band. The access node can receive instructions to discontinue transmitting the second service identifier within the first system information message. The access node can transmit a second system information message after receiving instructions to discontinue transmitting the second service identifier. The second system information message can include only the first identifier to indicate availability of only the first service over the frequency band.
