Detailed field explanation
SystemInformationBlockType1-MBMS-r14
Carries the first MBMS-specific system-information block.
Presence: Required
In practice: In practice, compare this field with the original request and with any later release-dependent optional fields so you can see whether the network accepted the same service model the UE asked for.
What to check in logs and traces
Check that it appears after the MBMS-specific master information block.
Use it to interpret the later MBMS system-information branch.
Common Issues and Troubleshooting
The UE acquires the earliest MBMS-specific block but not later MBMS system information.
Likely cause: SIB1 MBMS r14 may be missing, stale, or not reacquired.
What to inspect: Check whether SIB1 MBMS r14 is present and whether later System Information MBMS follows.
Next step: Treat it as MBMS broadcast-anchoring troubleshooting.
