A method and system for multicasting data in a communication network ( 100 ) to a specific group of user equipments (UEs) ( 120 ) that includes a source UE ( 102 ). The method provides for communicating ( 302 ) at least one FlowID to the specific group ( 120 ), the communicating including informing the specific group ( 120 ) of a broadcast server's IP address and port number to allow the UEs to set up resources in the network ( 100 ) for reception of wireless multicast data. The method also includes allowing ( 303 ) the source UE ( 102 ) to have a floor control for the specific group ( 120 ) that are uniquely identified in the network ( 100 ), the allowing being provided by a push server ( 112 ). Next, the method provides for receiving the data ( 304 ) at the broadcast server ( 114 ), from the source UE ( 102 ), and then multi-casting the data in non-duplicated packets to the specific group ( 120 ).
