Abstract  Abstract

User equipment, UE (700), comprising: a radio (710) arranged to receive a multicast transmission comprising a user service description, USD, of a multimedia broadcast / multicast service protocol, MBMS, where the multicast transmission comprises a description section (211) and a mapping section (213); and a processor circuit (120) arranged to identify a group of multicast content streams comprising multicast content streams based on the mapping section (213), where each of the plurality of multicast content streams corresponds to a version of a plurality of content versions, and selecting one of the multicast content streams to process based on the characteristics identified in the description section (211), where the multicast content stream is selected based on a underlying bit rate of a content version to which the multicast content stream corresponds, or as a function of an effective bit rate or channel quality associated with the transmission of the multicast content stream; The radio 710 is further arranged to establish a plurality of file distribution sessions via one-way transport, FLUTE, where each of the plurality of FLUTE sessions corresponds to one of the multicast content streams and the mapping section. it is arranged to understand information that identifies, for each corresponding multicast content stream and MBMS service, a corresponding FLUTE session.
