The disclosure is directed to group communications over evolved multimedia broadcast/multicast services (E-MBMS). An embodiment identifies a schedule for an indicator on a broadcast/multicast medium of a first multicast media on a multicast flow, wherein the indicator is configured to identify a location of data on the broadcast/multicast medium and to identify a presence of the data on the multicast flow, binds application layer paging, an application layer wake up mechanism, or a power saving mechanism to the schedule for the indicator on the multicast flow, wakes from a sleep mode to monitor the indicator to determine availability of the first multicast media based on the indicator, tunes to the first multicast media if the first multicast media is available, and returns to the sleep mode, if the first multicast media is not available. |
