In one example, a device includes a plurality of interfaces, wherein each of the interfaces is communicatively coupled to a respective one of a plurality of sources, a stream management unit configured to select, using a manifest file for multimedia content, one of a plurality of representations from which to retrieve multimedia data of the multimedia content, wherein the manifest file includes information indicative of the plurality of representations of the multimedia content, wherein the plurality of representations includes the selected representation, wherein multimedia data for the representations is available from the plurality of sources, and wherein the stream management unit is configured to select one of the sources from which to retrieve multimedia data for the selected representation, and a source component configured to retrieve multimedia data for the selected representation from the selected source via the one of the interfaces that is communicatively coupled to the selected source.

A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus is configured to monitor for a notification of MCCH information change associated with an MBSFN area without having previously performed an MCCH information acquisition procedure to acquire MCCH information in the MBSFN area. Furthermore, the apparatus is configured to acquire the MCCH information while monitoring for the notification of the MCCH information change that indicates a change of MCCH information.

Method and an apparatus to optimize monitoring for a new EMBMS session in LTE networks

A method for cell reselection by a wireless communication device is described. The method includes camping on a serving cell in idle mode. A neighbor cell is detected. A serving cell rank is computed for the serving cell. A neighbor cell rank is computed for the neighbor cell based on multimedia broadcast multicast service metrics. Cell reselection is determined based on the serving cell rank and the neighbor cell rank.

Cell reselection based on multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) metrics

Techniques are provided for reducing delay during streaming transmissions. For example, a method may include receiving a stream of data segments. The method may include establishing a first group of segments based on the data segments, and generating a first table of information. The method may include transmitting the first table and the first group of segments, and establishing a second group of segments based on the data segments, the second group of segments including a partial overlap of data segments included in the first group of segments. The method may include generating a second table of information, and transmitting the second table and a collection of segments that includes data segments from the second group that were not part of the first group.
