Abstract

A method for transmitting data from a mobile communication network to a mobile terminal. The method includes: receiving, at a first network entity of the network, a request from the mobile terminal to associate with the network, the request containing a parameter indicating whether the mobile terminal wishes to use signalling messages or a data transport channel for transmission of downlink data; receiving downlink data for the mobile terminal at a second network entity of the network, which is able to transmit the downlink data to the mobile terminal by way of a data transport channel; and in response to at least the parameter indicating that signalling messages are to be used for the transmission of downlink data to the mobile terminal, inserting the downlink data into at least one signalling message and transmitting the at least one signalling message, from the first network entity to the mobile terminal.
