Abstract

A UE side Broadcast/Multicast Control (BMC) protocol layer determines those Cell Broadcast Service (CBS) messages (and their repetitions) which the UE shall read or ignore in a succeeding CBS schedule period, based on the CBS Schedule Message contents (Message Description Type and New Message Bitmap) received in a current CBS schedule period, the CBS messages already stored in the BMC, and the CBS messages to be received. In this manner, the UE may ignore CBS messages it has already received, without knowledge of the CBS message serial numbers, and thus conserve resources such as battery power.
