Method and the device in order to support MBMS in system architecture evolution

摘要

The present invention discloses a system structure for supporting Evolved Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (Evolved MBMS), comprising: a Broadcast/Multicast Service Center (BM-SC) for initiating control signaling and bearer services for Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS); a System Architecture Evolved Gateway (SAE GW) for receiving MBMS service data and MBMS control signaling or service data from another network, and forwarding the received service data and control signaling; a Broadcast/Multicast Management Entity (BME) for receiving, processing and forwarding the MBMS control signaling, and determining, for each item of the service data for MBMS, an enhanced Node B (eNB) which needs to receive the control signaling; and an multicast User Plane Entity (mUPE) for receiving the MBMS service data, processing the received MBMS service data in Evolved Packet System Architecture Evolution, and forwarding the processed MBMS service data to a downstream node.
