A system and method are disclosed for providing multicast channel handover in a mobile device within a mobile network. First and second transmitters within first and second cells broadcast datagrams associated with a logical identifier according to link-level access parameters common to the first and second transmitters. A mobile device receives the broadcast datagrams for the logical identifier from the first transmitter by configuring the common link-level access parameters. As part of handover from the first cell to the second cell, the mobile device continues receiving the broadcast datagrams from the second transmitter by maintaining the common link-level access parameters. In one embodiment, the datagrams are IP datagrams transmitted in an MPEG2 transport stream. The link-level access parameters may include time slice parameters associated with burst transmissions from the first and second transmitters according to an embodiment of the invention.

A telecommunications system and method for rapid start-up of a Global Position System (GPS) receiver integrated with a mobile terminal is disclosed. The location of a reference GPS receiver associated with a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) within the cell that the mobile terminal is currently located is used as the local position estimate for that mobile terminal. The GSM TDMA frame numbers are first correlated with the GPS clock signal. Optionally, this correlation is adjusted using the adaptive frame alignment mechanism. This local position estimate is used to ascertain the location of the GPS receiver. The correlation data is then sent to the GPS-capable mobile terminal through the Short Messaging Service (SMS) cell broadcast facility or the Broadcast Control Channel (BCCH) facility of the GSM network to enable the built-in GPS receiver to calculate its position relatively quickly.

Idle mobile stations are steered to a particular cell or service area to accommodate subscriber preferences or restrictions, subscription services, or network operator preferences or restrictions and/or to accomplish load redistribution or other network management functions. Multiple idle mobile station steering factors are considered. Steering may be accomplished using a variety of techniques such as rejecting registration attempts in certain cells and accepting those attempts in others and adjusting cell broadcast parameters.

The present invention proposes a method of making use of Cell Broadcast to support MBMS transfer service announcement or service notification transfer. The method of transferring service announcement comprises the following steps: CBC commands UTRAN connected with it by a signaling message to send service announcement; UTRAN arranges the prescribed time of sending MBMS service announcement message, adds the brief description information to the schedule message and sends the schedule message; after receiving the schedule message, UE configures physical layer thereof to prepare for receiving MBMS service announcement message. UTARN sends MBMS service announcement message at the prescribed time.

A cell reselection method and system using an active measurement set in a mobile communication, which determines whether the user equipment enters in a power-saving mode based on the signal strength and strength variability of a serving cell and the mobile feature of a user equipment. In the power-saving mode, in accordance with the signal strength of neighboring cells on the serving cell, an active measurement set is formed with cells that are selected from the neighboring cells broadcasted by a WCDMA system and have stronger signals. The user equipment only requires measuring the cells in the active measurement set. Thus, since the cell number of the active measurement set is smaller than that defined by the WCDMA system, the number of neighboring cells required to be measured is reduced, so as to reduce the power dissipation and increase the idle time on the user equipment.
