A DEVICE AND A METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING NOTIFICATION MESSAGES AND A CORRESPONDING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING NOTIFICATION MESSAGES
First Claim
1. A device (100) for transmitting notification messages (165) to a terminal (160), the device comprising:
- a first input (130) for receiving a filter definition (135), the filter definition defining a filter type for use in filtering of the notification messages;
a second input (140) for receiving notification input data (145); and
a processor (110)for transmitting the filter definition to the terminal;
for determining filter elements (175), the filter elements corresponding to parameters derived from the filter definition, the value of the parameters corresponding to the notification input data, the filter elements to be used during a filtering action performed on the notification messages in the terminal;
for generating the notification messages, the notification messages comprising the filter elements; and
for transmitting the notification messages to the terminal.

Abstract
A device and a method for transmitting notification messages (165) and a corresponding device and method for receiving notification messages. A transmitting device (100) receives a filter definition (135) defining a filter type for use in filtering of the notification messages. The filter definition is transmitted to a terminal (160) via a broadcast installation (150). The terminal configures a filter based upon the filter definition. When a 5 notification is to be sent notification input data (145) is received and filter elements (175) are determined. The filter elements correspond to parameters derived from the filter definition. The value of the parameters correspond to the notification input data. The notification messages comprising the filter elements are generated and sent to the terminal. The terminal filters the notification messages using the filter, where the filtering is based upon the filter 10 elements.
