Abstract
A multicast broadcast service (MBS) receiving device establishes an MBS connection with an MBS transmitting device through a connection establishment message. When it is determined to receive MBS right after establishing the MBS connection, the MBS receiving device starts to receive the MBS right after establishing the MBS connection. When it is determined to not receive MBS right after establishing the MBS connection, the MBS receiving device transmits an MBS report message to the MBS transmitting device and then starts to receive the MBS.
