  • Patent number: 11012906
    Abstract: A user equipment receives an MBMS service provided using SC-PTM transmission. The user equipment performs a cell reselection operation of selecting a cell to be used as a serving cell of the user equipment while the user equipment is in an RRC idle mode. In the cell reselection operation, the user equipment selects, as the serving cell, a cell having a highest ranking determined based on a radio quality and an offset from among a plurality of cells. In the cell reselection operation, when the user equipment is in an enhanced coverage, the user equipment uses an infinite offset as the offset to be applied to a cell where the MBMS service is provided by the SC-PTM transmission, in response to a predetermined condition for the SC-PTM transmission being satisfied, when the user equipment goes out of the enhanced coverage, stop using the infinite offset.
