Method and system for sending and transmitting MBMS paging indication signaling

An apparatus for transmitting Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) paging indication signaling, which is applied to a network side, and the apparatus comprising:

• a configuration module and a transmitting module, which are connected with each other;
• wherein
• the configuration module is configured to assign bit resource which bears a Multipoint Control Channels (MCCH) modification indication for each MCCH according to available resource of paging indication signaling and a maximum number of MCCHs supported by a cell, and configure mapping information of each MCCH modification indication in the paging indication signaling;—wherein the available resource of the paging indication signaling is a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) which bears the paging indication signaling;
• and
• the transmitting module is configured to make the MCCH modification indication corresponding to the configured MCCH included in the paging indication signaling before transmitting the paging indication signaling, and continuously or separately populate the PDCCH with the MCCH modification indication corresponding to the configured MCCH;
• wherein the mapping information of the each MCCH modification indication in the paging indication signaling is an arrangement order and an initial position, on the PDCCH, of the MCCH modification indication corresponding to each configured MCCH.

A UE for transmitting Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) paging indication signaling, the UE is configured to learn mapping information of each MCCH modification indication in the paging indication signaling and receive the MCCH modification indication from a network side;

• wherein available resource of the paging indication signaling is a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) which bears the paging indication signaling;
• and
• the UE is configured to determine whether the content of each configured MCCH has changed according to the received MCCH modification indication corresponding to each MCCH;
• wherein the received MCCH modification indication corresponding to each MCCH populates the PDCCH continuously or separately by means of the network side;
• wherein the mapping information of the each MCCH modification indication in the paging indication signaling is an arrangement order and an initial position, on the PDCCH, of the MCCH modification indication corresponding to each configured MCCH.
