1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, at a receiver device, a data stream protocol packet that comprises a payload;

    inspecting, by a processor, a payload type of the data stream protocol packet;

    determining that the payload type indicates that the payload includes a descriptor or section, and, in response, decapsulating the data stream protocol packet;

    determining to receive at least one additional data stream protocol packet of the payload type;

    repeating the receiving, inspecting, and decapsulating for the at least one additional data stream protocol packet, resulting in a plurality of descriptors or sections that includes data of the data stream protocol packet and additional data of the at least one additional data stream protocol packet; and

    generating, at the receiver device, a first descriptor or section based on the plurality of descriptors or sections, wherein the first descriptor or section identifies at least one service available for data streaming from a current cell or from at least one neighboring cell, wherein a length of the first descriptor or section differs from a length of the data stream protocol packet.
