Method and system for de-registering a broadcast/multicast service in a high-rate packet data system

摘要

A system and method for de-registering a Broadcast/Multicast Service (BCMCS) in a high-rate packet data system including an access network (AN) for performing radio communication with an access terminal (AT), a packet control function (PCF) for processing packet data communication, and a packet data service node (PDSN) connected to a BCMCS contents server (CS) via a packet communication network is provided. In the system and method, the access network receives a de-registration message for a release request of a BCMCS service from the access terminal. The access network transmits a BCMCS release message including BCMCS information with a release request, to the packet control function. The packet control function transmits a BCMCS registration request message including the BCMCS information to the packet data service node. The packet data service node performs a release and accounting process on a corresponding BCMCS service based on the BCMCS information.
