Patent ID: 8417245

Claim:
A method for receiving multimedia broadcasts/multicast services (MBMS) data implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) included in a mobile device, the method comprising: receiving a first set of MBMS data segments from a first MBMS transmitting source along with a first segmentation information associated with the first set of MBMS data segments, wherein the first segmentation information is received in-band with the MBMS data segments; disestablishing communication with the first MBMS transmitting source and establishing communication with a second MBMS transmitting source in response to a movement of the mobile computing device; receiving a second set of MBMS data segments, different than the first set of MBMS data segments, and a second segmentation information associated with the second set of MBMS data segments, from the second MBMS transmitting source, wherein the first set of MBMS data segments from the first MBMS transmitting source and the second set of MBMS data segments from the second MBMS transmitting source are received in an order different than an order indicated by the first and second segmentation information; and reordering the first and second MBMS data segments based on the first and second segmentation information received from the first MBMS transmitting source and the second MBMS transmitting source, respectively.
