1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
transmitting, by a base station, a master information block message including an indicator identifying a frequency domain location parameter or a time domain location parameter for a non-anchor carrier or an anchor carrier; and
transmitting, by the base station and using the non-anchor carrier or the anchor carrier, a system information block type 1 (SIB1) message to a user equipment in accordance with the frequency domain location parameter or the time domain location parameter,
wherein the non-anchor carrier is in at least one first physical resource block of a resource block group, and
wherein the non-anchor carrier is in at least one second physical resource block, of the resource block group, that is contiguous to the at least one first physical resource block without any other physical resource blocks of the resource block group between the at least one first physical resource block and the at least one second physical resource block.
