    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of synchronizing a multicast and broadcast service packet flow on a wireless wideband system, comprising a core network coupled to a gateway, an MBS server coupled to said gateway and a plurality of base stations belonging to an MBS zone. The method comprises the steps of: receiving at least a first MBS packet belonging to the MBS packet flow for transmission to the MBS zone from the core network by the gateway; receiving at least a first sync packet containing a first time stamp by the gateway from the MBS server, the first time stamp being a summation of the time reference and a time offset, the time offset being a maximum delay between the MBS server and the first base station of the plurality of base stations, the first time stamp determining the first MBS packet transmission time; and sending at least the first MBS packet and at least the first sync packet to the plurality of base stations including the first base station by the gateway. The method further comprises comparing at least the first MBS packet transmission time with a plurality of predetermined transmission times of a plurality of downlink frames including a first predetermined transmission time of a first DL frame for identification of a matching between one of the predetermined transmission times of the plurality of downlink frames and the first MBS packet transmission time, by at least the first base station; allocating at least a portion of the first MBS packet into a first downlink frame having the first predetermined transmission time matching the first MBS packet transmission time, by at least the first base station.
