There is provided mechanisms for group call setup in a group communications system. A method is performed by a control node. The method comprises obtaining a need for transmission of group call media to a group of client nodes in the group communications system. The method comprises activating a previously announced second Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Services (MBMS) bearer in response to having obtained the need. The method comprises transmitting group call setup message on the second MBMS bearer, wherein the group call setup message comprises at least an identity of a previously announced and activated first MBMS bearer. There is also provided a control node configured to perform such a method. There is further provided a method performed by a client node and a client node configured to perform such a method.
A method for group call setup in a group communications system, the method being performed by a control node, the method comprising:
A method for group call setup in a group communications system, the method being performed by a client node, the method comprising:
A control node for group call setup in a group communications system, the control node comprising processing circuitry, the processing circuitry being configured to cause the control node to:
17-18. (canceled)
A client node for group call setup in a group communications system, the client node comprising processing circuitry, the processing circuitry being configured to cause the client node to:
20-21. (canceled)
A computer program for group call setup in a group communications system, the computer program comprising computer code stored in non-transitory computer readable media which, when run on processing circuitry of a control node, causes the control node to:
