1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
determining a duplexing configuration of a carrier, wherein the duplexing configuration comprises one of a time division duplex (TDD) configuration, a frequency division duplex (FDD), or an unlicensed spectrum configuration;
in response to a determination that the duplexing configuration is the TDD configuration, postulating a special subframe configuration based at least in part on the TDD configuration of the carrier;
receiving a master information block (MIB) on the carrier, wherein the MIB is received according to the postulated special subframe configuration; and
interpreting at least one field of the MIB based at least in part on the duplexing configuration of the carrier.
