<p>Techniques for supporting multimedia broadcast/multicast services (MBMS) are described. A group of base stations/cells may support a number of MBMS services and may transmit any set of MBMS services in a given scheduling period. In one design, a base station may determine scheduling information for a plurality of MBMS services, generate a bitmap based on the scheduling information, and send the bitmap to convey the scheduling information. The bitmap may include a bit for each MBMS service, and the bit may indicate whether or not that MBMS service is scheduled. In one design, the bitmap may cover all MBMS services supported by the base station. In another design, a plurality of groups of MBMS services may be formed for all supported MBMS services. A group of MBMS services may be selected from among the plurality of groups, and the bitmap may be for the MBMS services in the selected group.</p> |
