System Information Overview
System information (SYS INFO) contains network parameters sent

to MS through Um interface
network identity parameters (!I" I#)
ce$$ se$ection parameters
system contro$ parameters
network function parameters
System information can %e sent through two kinds of $ogica$

channe$s
System information on &' (IN the I#() mode)
System information on S*' (#edicated mode)
