Abstract
A method for Xn handover of a multicast/broadcast service (MBS) by a session management function (SMF) device in a mobile communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a target next generation radio access network (NG-RAN) node through an access and mobility management function (AMF), a first message including information on whether the target NG-RAN node supports the MBS, determining an individual delivery method for MBS data, in case that the target NG-RAN node does not support the MBS based on the first message, and setting up the MBS data to be individually delivered to a user equipment (UE) through the target NG-RAN node.
