Abstract
A mobile communication method comprises: a step A of broadcasting, from a specific cell, MBMS service update information indicating a timing of a broadcasting of MBMS service information indicating contents of MBMS data; a step B of broadcasting, from the specific cell, the MBMS service information at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information; and a step C of receiving, by the mobile terminal existing in the specific cell, the MBMS service information broadcasted from the specific cell at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information broadcasted from the specific cell.
Claims6
A mobile communication method for distributing MBMS data to a mobile terminal in a mobile communication system including a general cell supporting a broadcasting of the MBMS data and a specific cell not supporting the broadcasting of the MBMS data, comprising:
- a step A of broadcasting, from the specific cell, MBMS service update information indicating a timing of a broadcasting of MBMS service information indicating contents of the MBMS data;
- a step B of broadcasting, from the specific cell, the MBMS service information at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information;
- and
- a step C of receiving, by the mobile terminal existing in the specific cell, the MBMS service information broadcasted from the specific cell at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information broadcasted from the specific cell.
A mobile terminal that receives MBMS data in a mobile communication system including a general cell supporting a broadcasting of the MBMS data and a specific cell not supporting the broadcasting of the MBMS data, comprising:
- a receiver that receives, from the specific cell, MBMS service update information indicating a timing of a broadcasting of MBMS service information indicating contents of the MBMS data, wherein
- the receiver receives, from the specific cell, the MBMS service information broadcasted from the specific cell at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information broadcasted from the specific cell.
A radio base station that manages a specific cell in a mobile communication system including a general cell supporting a broadcasting of MBMS data and the specific cell not supporting the broadcasting of the MBMS data, comprising:
- a broadcasting unit that broadcasts MBMS service update information indicating a timing of a broadcasting of MBMS service information indicating contents of the MBMS data, wherein
- the broadcasting unit broadcasts the MBMS service information at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information.
A program used in a mobile terminal that receives MBMS data in a mobile communication system including a general cell supporting a broadcasting of the MBMS data and a specific cell not supporting the broadcasting of the MBMS data, the program causing a computer to execute:
- a step of receiving, from the specific cell, MBMS service update information indicating a timing of a broadcasting of MBMS service information indicating contents of the MBMS data;
- and
- a step of receiving, from the specific cell, the MBMS service information broadcasted from the specific cell at the timing indicated by the MBMS service update information broadcasted from the specific cell.
