Abstract:
Various features related to frequency hopping for broadcast/multicast transmissions for narrow band devices are described. To exploit frequency diversity, multicast transmissions may be frequency hopped. In an aspect, a UE maybe configured to receive a signal, e.g., from a base station, including at least one of a first hopping indicator indicating whether frequency hopping is enabled for a multicast control channel or a second hopping indicator indicating whether frequency hopping is enabled for a multicast traffic channel, and determine whether frequency hopping is enabled for the at least one of the multicast control or traffic channel based on the received signal. The UE may further determine at least one hopping pattern for receiving multicast transmissions in the at least one of the multicast control channel or the multicast traffic channel when the frequency hopping is enabled, and receive the multicast transmissions based on the determined at least one hopping pattern.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of wireless communication of a user equipment (UE), comprising:\n receiving a first hopping indicator indicating whether frequency hopping is enabled for a multicast control channel; receiving a second hopping indicator for each of a plurality of multicast traffic channels corresponding to a plurality of multicast services, each second hopping indicator indicating, at least in part, whether frequency hopping is enabled for a corresponding multicast traffic channel in the plurality of multicast traffic channels; and determining whether frequency hopping is enabled for the multicast control channel or the plurality of multicast traffic channels based, at least in part, on the first hopping indicator and the second hopping indicator for each of the plurality of multicast traffic channels.
