A method of operating a radio telecommunications network including, a plurality of base transceiver stations (BTSs) each transmitting on a respective transmission bandwidth, and one or more mobile terminals (MTs) each having a respective maximum reception bandwidth, defining a common multicast frequency band within the transmission bandwidth of at least a first group of BTSs of the network on which the multicast service is to be transmitted; transmitting a multicast service in the common multicast frequency band from each BTS within the first group of BTSs; and enabling each base station having a bandwidth greater than the width of the common multicast frequency band to transmit a uni-cast service in portion of its transmission bandwidth falling outside the multicast frequency band. |
