Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for referencing a physical channel carrying point-to-multipoint service data in a wireless communication system. The present invention utilizes an identifier to reference specific physical channel configurations previously sent to a mobile terminal from a network. The identifier may reference an entry in a list of physical channel configuration in a specific message. Alternatively, a physical channel configuration in a first message is first allocated a specific identity. Then, a specific identifier referencing the specific identity is used in a second message to identify the physical channel configuration in the first message.
Claims20
A method for referencing at least one physical channel carrying point-to-multipoint service data in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving a first message comprising configuration information and an identity for the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel,
- wherein the first message is received through a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) point-to-multipoint Control Channel (MCCH),
- wherein the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel is organized into a list in the first message,
- wherein the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel is used in a current cell;
- receiving a second message referencing at least one of the configuration information in the first message,
- wherein an identity for configuration information included in the second message is the same as the identify for the configuration information included in the first message,
- wherein the second message is received through a MCCH;
- and
- configuring the at least one physical channel according to the configuration information in the first message referenced by the second message,
- wherein the configured at least one physical channel, which is referenced by the second message, is used in a neighboring cell,
- wherein the at least one physical channel is a secondary common control physical channel (SCCPCH).
A method for referencing at least one physical channel carrying point-to-multipoint service data in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- generating a first message comprising configuration information and an identityfor each of at least one for the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel;
- organizing the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel into a list in the first message;
- transmitting the first message to a mobile terminal,
- wherein the first message is transmitted through a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) point-to multipoint Control Channel (MCCH),
- wherein the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel is used in a current cell of the mobile terminal;
- generating a second message for referencing at least one of the configuration information in the first message,
- wherein the at least one physical channel is configured by the mobile terminal according to the configuration information,
- wherein an identity for configuration information included in the second message is the same as the identity for the configuration information included in the first message,
- wherein the second message is transmitted through a MCCH,
- wherein the configured at least one physical channel, which is referenced by the second message, is used in a neighboring cell of the mobile terminal;
- and
- transmitting the second message to the mobile terminal,
- wherein the at least one physical channel is a secondary common control physical channel (SCCPCH).
A method for referencing at least one physical channel carrying point-to-multipoint service data in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving a first message comprising configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel, wherein each configuration information is identified by a configuration identifier in the first message, wherein the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel is used in a current cell, wherein the first message is received through a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) point-to-multipoint Control Channel (MCCH);
- receiving a second message referencing at least one of the configuration information in the first message, wherein the configuration information is referenced by identifying the configuration identifier, wherein an identity for configuration information included in teh second message is the same as the configuration identifier in the first message, wherein the second message is received through a MCCH;
- and
- configuring the at least one physical channel according to the configuration information in the first message referenced by the second message, wherein the configured at least one physical channel, which is referenced by the second message, is used in a neighboring cell,
- wherein the at least one physical channel is a secondary common control physical channel (SCCPCH).
A method for referencing at least one physical channel carrying point-to-multipoint service data in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- generating a first message comprising configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel;
- allocating a configuration identifier to each configuration information in the first message;
- transmitting the first message to a mobile terminal,
- wherein the first message is transmitted through a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) point-to-multipoint Control Channel (MCCH),
- wherein the configuration information for each of the at least one physical channel is used in a current cell of the mobile terminal;
- generating a second message for referencing at least one of the configuration information in the first message, wherein the configuration information is referenced by identifying the configuration identifier and the at least one physical channel is configured by the mobile terminal according to the configuration information,
- wherein an identity for configuration information in the second message is the same as the configuration identifier in the first message,
- wherein the second message is transmitted through a MCCH,
- wherein the configured at least one physical channel, which is referenced by the second message, is used in a neighboring cell of the mobile terminal;
- and
- transmitting the second message to the mobile terminal,
- wherein the at least one physical channel is a secondary common control physical channel (SCCPCH).
