Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer readable storage media are described. The apparatus may receive a next cell broadcast message or a schedule message according to schedule information in first-received cell broadcast message. The schedule information may indicate timing of the next cell broadcast message or the schedule message. The first cell broadcast message may be received before timing information associated with a cell broadcast channel is known, including after a reselection procedure or after termination of a voice call. The schedule information may relate to a discontinuous reception schedule defined in a missed schedule message. Presence of the schedule information in the first cell broadcast message may be indicated in a page parameter of a header of the first cell broadcast message or in a block identifier of the first cell broadcast message. A network entity is described that adds the schedule information to the first cell broadcast message.

Abstract: In a communication device having multiple subscriber identification modules (SIMs), the processing of cell broadcast service (CBS) messages is optimized. A geographic scope of an incoming CBS message is determined. If all SIMs belong to the determined geographic scope, the message is only received and processed by a single one of the SIMs.
