Patent ID: 7664064

Claim:
A method of receiving a point-to-multipoint service at a mobile communications terminal in a mobile communications system, the method comprising: receiving radio bearer (RB) information comprising multi channel code information on a control channel, the multi channel code information including at least two channelization codes for configuring at least two multi-code physical channels; receiving a transport format combination indicator (TFCI), the TFCI indicating a transport format combination associated with the at least two multi-code physical channels; and receiving data for the point-to-multipoint service on the at least two multi-code physical channels based on the received TFCI, wherein the TFCI is received on a first multi-code physical channel only among the at least two multi-code physical channels and the first multi-code physical channel is a multi-code physical channel having a lowest index among the at least two multi-code physical channels, and wherein each of the at least two channelization codes is one of a spreading code, an orthogonal code and an orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) code.
