However, while the multicasts of frames of data associated with an MBMS service by different Node Bs need not be synchronized, synchronized multicasts are preferable for soft combining. Therefore, the communication system further provides for a synchronization by a network controller of the multicasts of the soft combinable MBMS data by the multiple Node Bs. | 08-28-2008 |
