The invention relates to a cell broadcast service in a cellular communication system (200). A broadcast information message generator (201) generates broadcast information messages in different content categories. The broadcast information messages are associated with broadcast channels in an association processor (203) and transmitted by a transmitter (205) comprising base stations. In addition, association information data indicating an association between broadcast channels and content categories is generated by an association data generator (207). The association information data is additionally broadcast by the transmitters. A user equipment (209) comprises a receiver (211) which receives the association information data and feeds it to a message controller (213). The message controller (213) receives an input from a user selecting a given content category. The message controller (213) determines corresponding broadcast channels for the selected content category using the association information data and configures the user equipment (209) to receive this broadcast channel. Hence, the user equipment may automatically configure itself to receive appropriate content categories. |
