Paging method for an MBMS service in a mobile communication system
First Claim
1. A method for paging a User Equipment (UE) by a radio access network in order to provide both a multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS) and a non-MBMS to the UE in a mobile communication system including at least one UE and the radio access network, the method comprising:
- transmitting a first channel information about a common paging indication channel and a second channel information about a common control channel to at least one UE in advance;
transmitting the common paging indication channel in response to an MBMS paging request of the UE;
transmitting paging information of the MBMS through the common control channel in response to transmission of the common paging indication channel; and
transmitting separate channel information on the common paging indication channel for identifying existence of paging for the non-MBMS and the common control channel for transmitting paging information of the non-MBMS, respectively,wherein the common paging indication channel identifies existence of a group paging for the MBMS and the common control channel transmits paging information of the identified MBMS.

Abstract
A paging method for informing a UE of the existence or absence of control information in transmission of the control information according to the support of an MBMS in a mobile communication system. In the method, paging according to a voice and packet service and paging according to an MBMS are differentiated from each other. Accordingly, a first paging indication channel for identifying the paging according to the voice and packet service and a second paging indication channel for identifying the paging according to the MBMS are differentiated from each other and used.

7. A method for receiving a paging for both a multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS) and a non-MBMS by a User Equipment (UE) from a radio access network providing the MBMS to the UE in a mobile communication system including at least one UE and the radio access network, the method comprising:
-
receiving a first channel information about a common paging indication channel and a second channel information about a common control channel from the radio access network in advance; receiving the common paging indication channel from the radio access network through the first channel information; receiving the common control channel from the radio access network through the second channel information, when transmission of the common control channel corresponding to the MBMS is checked by the common paging indication channel; and checking if the MBMS has been paged by paging information received through the common control channel; and receiving separate channel information on the common paging indication channel for identifying existence of paging for the non-MBMS and the common control channel for transmitting paging information of the non-MBMS respectively, wherein the common paging indication channel identifies existence of a group paging for the MBMS and the common control channel transmits paging information of the identified MBMS. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for receiving a paging for both a multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS) and a non-MBMS by a User Equipment (UE) from a radio access network providing the MBMS to the UE in a mobile communication system including at least one UE and the radio access network, the method comprising:
-
receiving a first channel information about a common paging indication channel and a second channel information about a common control channel from the radio access network in advance; receiving the common paging indication channel from the radio access network through the first channel information; receiving the common control channel from the radio access network through the second channel information, when transmission of the common control channel corresponding to the MBMS is checked by the common paging indication channel; and checking if the MBMS has been paged by paging information received through the common control channel, wherein the reception of the common paging indication channel is performed at a time point determined by;
MBMS PI=TMGI mod NMp,wherein, NMp denotes a number of paging indicators transmitted on one radio frame for the MBMS and TMGI is an acronym for Temporary MBMS Group Identity.
