Methods and systems enable application content for use by an application running on a receiver device to be broadcast by a mobile multimedia broadcast network for energy-efficient reception and use by receiver devices. Information about application content that will be broadcast is broadcast in application metadata messages. Receiver devices may receive such application metadata messages in a broadcast receiver client which passes the information to the application. The application may inform the broadcast receiver client of particular application content or filtering attributes to use in selecting application content to be received. The broadcast receiver client receives the indicated application content at the designated broadcast time and passes the received content to the application for processing. In an embodiment the application is a Mobile Billboard Advertising (MobAd) application, the application metadata includes attributes about ad content and the broadcast application content includes ad content.

Delivery of selective content to client applications by mobile broadcast device with content filtering capability

A system, method, and computer program for data communication, or 'handshaking,' between wireless devices and a server on a wireless network. Upon a wireless device communicating with the server, the server obtains data from the wireless device indicative of wireless device attributes, and the server determines access of the wireless device, based upon the wireless device attributes, to applications either resident on that server or on other computer devices on the wireless network.
