Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for providing a multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS) to a user equipment (UE) by a base station in a mobile communication system. The method includes transmitting, to a terminal, a first message including first information about a scheduling period and an offset; transmitting, to the terminal, control information notifying of a change of a second message; transmitting, to the terminal, the second message including second information about at least one multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS), based on the first information about the scheduling period and the offset; and transmitting, to the terminal, data of the at least one MBMS. The second information about the at least one MBMS includes an identification of the at least one MBMS.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for providing a multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS) to a user equipment (UE) by a base station in a mobile communication system. The method includes transmitting, to the UE, a first message including information about a scheduling period and an offset indicating a start point of the scheduling period; transmitting, to the UE, a second message including information about at least one MBMS in the scheduling period, based on the information about the scheduling period and the offset; and transmitting, to the UE, data of the at least one MBMS via an MBMS radio bearer (RB) established for the at least one MBMS. The information about the at least one MBMS includes identification of the at least one MBMS.
