CONFIGURATION METHOD, DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR RESOURCE OCCUPIED BY MULTICAST CONTROL CHANNEL

摘要

A configuration method, device and system for resource occupied by a multicast control channel (MCCH) are disclosed, which relate to the radio communication field and solve the problem that a user equipment (UE) cannot know the physical resource occupied by the MCCH. The present method comprises: a designated network element generates at least one subframe allocation pattern (SAP) in accordance with a subframe set of the Multicast/Broadcast over Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) bearing the MCCH; the designated network element sends a network layer device an SAP configuration message which carries at least one SAP generated by the designated network element or at least an index value of SAP generated by the designated network element and indicates the network layer device to send MCCH information based on the corresponding SAP. The method solves the problem that UE cannot know the physical resource occupied by the MCCH.
