SIB 11 contains measurement control information and the neighbour cell information list.

SIB 10 contains DRAC parameters. This SIB is read only by the UEs with specific capability, i.e. able to read SCCPCH and DPCH simultaneously. This SIB is received on FACH
TrCh rather than BCH.

SIB 9 contains dynamic CPCH parameters.

SIB 8 contains static CPCH parameters.

SIB 7 contains fast changing parameters, particularly relating to RACH usage.

SIB 6 contains the same parameters as SIB 5 but is to be used in connected mode states
only.

SIB 5 contains parameters for common physical channels such as PRACH, SCCPCH, etc.
These parameters are used in the establishment of channels in idle mode or connected
states, except CELL DCH.

SIB 4 contains the same information as SIBs 3, but SIB 4 is used in connected states of the the RRC and if not scheduled in a cell, the RRC shall use SIB 3 instead.

SIB 3 contains the cell selection and reselection parameters for the serving cell. SIB 3 also contains the cell access restriction information for the current cell. SIB 3 information is used by the RRC in idle mode and connected mode (only if SIB 4 is not available),
to perform cell selection and reselection.

SIB 2 contains the UTRAN registration area list that the current cell belongs to. This
information is used by UE in URA PCH state to evaluate whether a URA UPDATE
procedure must be initiated or not.

SIB 1 is a PLMN scope SIB, which means that some parts of SIB 1 information can be retained even after the cell reselection (if PLMN is the same in the new cell). SIB 1 contains the GSM-MAP cell NAS information for each CN

RECEPTION OF BROADCAST SYSTEM INFORMATION

The RRC is provided with basic information about the network from the information
broadcast by each cell in the system. This information is called system information.

This broadcast information describes the common channels in the cell, measurement and cell selection/reselection related information for the transmitting cell and its neighbouring cells, someNAS-related information, information used in intersystem handovers and also location services related information.

Broadcast information is transmitted to the UE by UTRAN using the Broadcast Control Channel (BCCH) logical channel which is mapped onto the BCH transport channel in all states of UE except when in CELL DCH state. System information is also essential for the UE initially to establish the timing relationship with the network.

The system information is broadcast in small units called System Information Blocks (SIBs).
Each system information block encapsulates the same type of network information. This
is required so as to allow UEs to capture only the required system information. Moreover, different kinds of information have different requirements on scope (cell scope, PLMN scope), validity and frequency of updates.
