BCMCS

What is BCMCS?
!

BroadCast and MultiCast Services

Ability to transmit same stream of information to all

or a selected group of Mobile Stations

Example services:
Traffic/weather information with some advertisements

unconditionally delivered to MS in a region Public service announcements in emergency situations like Amber alerts, Tornado warning etc. Stock market tracker, Sports score tracker for restricted subscribers Efficient delivery of Group PTT or chat sessions

BCMCS Benefits
! !

Efficient use of radio and network resources to deliver same contents to a collections of users Effective for different services with different requirements
Large number of users sharing a public

announcement stream during emergency situations Select group of users distributed in different parts of the network like live transmission of sports events
!

Allows additional revenue creation opportunities for the operator

Ability to support group communication services Advertisements added to common broadcasts
