Abstract

A user equipment (UE) provides a capability-type indication for each of one or more UE capabilities. Each indication corresponds to a capability type, the type being one of a persistent capability or a second-type capability. Information corresponding to the capability-type indication may be provided to an eNB associated with the UE by RRC signaling. The UE provides a capability-change indication for each of one or more UE capabilities that has changed capability type. Information corresponding to the capability-change indication may be provided to an eNB by lower layer signaling, RRC signaling, or a combination thereof. Capability change information may be sent to the eNB autonomously by the UE, or in response to an inquiry from the eNB. The inquiry from the eNB may be triggered by the UE.
