Multicast/Broadcast Service (MBS) for user equipments (UE) in Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle/inactive modes via signally of MBS frequency ranges and/or switching between frequency ranges as required. Bandwidth Part (BWP) operation for MBS in RRC IDLE and RRC INACTIVE states may be implemented using a dedicated MBS BWP or by sharing a frequency range with other operations. An MBS frequency range may be wider or narrower than an initial BWP used by a UE, for example. MBS frequency range configure may be achieved in a number of ways, such as via Control Resource Set (CORESET), search space, and/or PDCCH monitoring occasions pattern settings for MBS in RRC idle/inactive. Downlink scheduling without dynamic grant for MBS in RRC idle/inactive may include configured scheduling and/or semi-persistent scheduling. Downlink repetition for MBS in RRC idle/inactive may include PDSCH repetition and/or PDCCH repetition

An apparatus comprising a processor, communications circuitry, a memory, and instructions stored in the memory which, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
The apparatus of claim 16, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the apparatus to:
The apparatus of claim 16, wherein the receiving the one or more SIB occurs while the apparatus is in the RRC idle state or the RRC inactive state.
The apparatus of claim 16, wherein the second frequency region is associated with an identifier of a MBS service stored by the apparatus, and wherein the monitoring the second frequency region is based on the apparatus subscribing to receive MBS communications of the MBS service.
A method performed by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), comprising:
