摘要： A method supporting control channel change notification for at least one wireless communication unit capable of operating on a first serving communication cell and configured with access to at least one second serving communication cell in a wireless broadcast communication system. The method includes, at a broadcast server: supporting communication with at least one wireless communication unit via the at least one second serving communication cell; generating a message including an indication that a control channel change notification will be sent in the at least one first serving communication cell; transmitting the message to the at least one wireless communication unit operational in the at least one second serving communication cell; and transmitting the control channel change notification in the first serving communication cell.

摘要： A telecommunications system communicating data to/from one or more terminals and a network, including one or more transmitters operable to transmit first and second carriers over respective first and second frequency bandwidths. During a first time period the transmitters can transmit data receivable by first and second classes of terminals on the first and second carriers. During a second different time period, the transmitters can transmit data to the second terminal class on the first and second carriers in combination. A data transmission format on the first carrier is incompatible with a user data transmission format on the second carrier, during the first time period, and the transmitters can transmit control data on the first carrier in the first time period receivable by the second terminal class to enable the second terminal class to maintain synchronization with the first carrier during the first time period.

摘要： A mobile telecommunications system including mobile terminals of first type and second type configured to transmit uplink data to a network over a radio interface using plural sub-carriers. The mobile terminals of first type configured to transmit uplink data on a first group of the sub-carriers over a first bandwidth and the mobile terminals of second type configured to transmit uplink data on a second group of the sub-carriers within the first group of sub-carrier over a second bandwidth smaller than the first bandwidth. The mobile terminals of first type transmit random access request messages to a base station of the network requesting uplink radio resources on a first random access channel. The mobile terminals of second type transmit random access request messages to the base station of the network requesting uplink radio resources on a second random access channel on sub-carriers within the second sub-carrier group.
