A METHOD OF TRANSMITTING A VALIDITY OF PHYSICAL CHANNELS CARRYING MULTIMEDIA BROADCAST MULTICAST SERVICE(MBMS) DATA IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

The invention proposes a method for indicating the validity of physical channels of a control cell and a neighbouring cell carrying point-to-multipoint service data in a wireless communication system. The method includes the following steps: generating a message comprising configuration information for each of said channels; including validity information with the message for deriving the validity timing of the configuration information for each of said channels; and transmitting the message to a mobile terminal (10) through the control cell. The invention also proposes a mobile equipment (10) and a Radio Network Controller (111), respectively adapted to implement the above method.
