Abstract

There is provided a method for transmitting data by a base station (BS) in a multicast broadcast service (MBS) supporting multiple carriers in a wireless communication system. The method comprises receiving a switching request message indicating an E-MBS service requested by a mobile station (MS), from the MS, transmitting a switching response message including information regarding a switching start time among a plurality of carriers set in the MS and transmitting data regarding an E-MBS service requested by the MS to the MS through a primary carrier, starting from the switching start time.Alternatively, there is provided a method for receiving data by a mobile station (MS) in a multicast broadcast service (MBS) supporting multiple carriers in a wireless communication system. The method comprises transmitting a switching request message indicating an E-MBS service requested by the MS to a BS, receiving a switching response message including information regarding a switching start time among a plurality of carriers set in the MS from the BS, switching from a secondary carrier to a primary carrier at the switching start time and receiving data regarding an E-MBS service requested by…
