METHODS, USER EQUIPMENT AND RADIO NETWORK NODE FOR MULTIMEDIA BROADCAST MULTICAST SERVICE

Abstract:

A method and a user equipment as well as a method and a radio network node for multimedia broadcast service are disclosed. The radio network node sends, on a physical downlink control channel of the carrier, downlink control information using a multicast network identifier. The downlink control information includes a bit indicating whether or not at least two emergency notifications are broadcast on the carrier, and a notification relating to a change of a multicast channel of the carrier. The user equipment receives, on a physical downlink control channel of the carrier, downlink control information using a multicast network identifier. The user equipment behaves as if at least two fields relating to indication of said at least two emergency notifications are set to one in a paging message for the user equipment, when the bit is set to one.
