Abstract
A method supporting control channel change notification for at least one wireless communication unit capable of operating on a first serving communication cell and configured with access to at least one second serving communication cell in a wireless broadcast communication system. The method includes, at a broadcast server: supporting communication with at least one wireless communication unit via the at least one second serving communication cell; generating a message including an indication that a control channel change notification will be sent in the at least one first serving communication cell; transmitting the message to the at least one wireless communication unit operational in the at least one second serving communication cell; and transmitting the control channel change notification in the first serving communication cell.
