Abstract
The present invention provides a method for receiving broadcast data in a system where broadcast data is transmitted on a plurality of frequencies. A user device monitors (302) a first frequency (108) for broadcast data to be transmitted on the first frequency. The device receives on the first frequency a notification of a broadcast data session which is to be sent on a second frequency (114) that is different from the first frequency. The device then determines a configuration associated with the second frequency and in accordance with receiving the broadcast data session and then configures (310) to receive the broadcast data session in accordance with the determined configuration. After receiving the broadcast data session, the device returns to monitoring the first frequency.
