Abstract
The disclosure is directed to prioritizing call announce response in a broadcast/multicast communication system. An embodiment establishes a first priority for response based on assigning each user equipment (UE) a first random delay for response to a first call announce, responds to the first call announce using the first random delay, and determines a second priority for response to a subsequent call announce based on an elapsed time that each UE is present in a multicast area.
Claims32
A method for prioritizing call announce response in a broadcast/multicast communication system comprising:
- establishing a first priority for response based on assigning each user equipment (UE) a first random delay for response to a first call announce;
- responding to the first call announce using the first random delay;
- and
- determining a second priority for response to a subsequent call announce based on an elapsed time that each UE is present in a multicast area.
An apparatus for prioritizing call announce response in a broadcast/multicast communication system comprising:
- logic configured to establish a first priority for response based on assigning each user equipment (UE) a first random delay for response to a first call announce;
- logic configured to respond to the first call announce using the first random delay;
- and
- logic configured to determine a second priority for response to a subsequent call announce based on an elapsed time that each UE is present in a multicast area.
An apparatus for prioritizing call announce response in a broadcast/multicast communication system comprising:
- means for establishing a first priority for response based on assigning each user equipment (UE) a first random delay for response to a first call announce;
- means for responding to the first call announce using the first random delay;
- and
- means for determining a second priority for response to a subsequent call announce based on an elapsed time that each UE is present in a multicast area.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for prioritizing call announce response in a broadcast/multicast communication system comprising:
- at least one instruction to establish a first priority for response based on assigning each user equipment (UE) a first random delay for response to a first call announce;
- at least one instruction to respond to the first call announce using the first random delay;
- and
- at least one instruction to determine a second priority for response to a subsequent call announce based on an elapsed time that each UE is present in a multicast area.
