2. Introductions EMBS_Zone_ID is used to identify an unique EMBS Zone Neighbor ABSs’ E-MBS zone affiliations that can facilitate inter-MBS zone transition are carried in AAI- E-MBS_CFG or in AAI_NBR-ADV However, idle AMSs will miss both messages because idle AMSs do not interpret A-A-MAP –Current E-MBS design does not consider the interests of idle AMSs In order to facilitate inter-MBS zone transition for idle AMSs, neighbor ABSs’ E-MBS zone affiliations shall be advertised at a pre-determined location

3. AAI_E-MBS-ADV transmission In this proposal, neighbor ABSs’ E-MBS zone affiliations are included in the cell-specific E-MBS configuration message, AAI_E-MBS-ADV –AAI_E-MBS-ADV is transmitted in the next DL sub-frame following E-MBS region –AMSs in connected state and idle state can receive AAI_E-MBS-ADV AAI_E-MBS-ADV may be transmitted periodically or when needed A cell-specific configuration indicator is included in EMBS MAP to notify AMSs the presence of AAI_E-MBS-ADV message E-MBS MAP Cell-specific Configuration indicator A-MAP AAI_E-MBS-ADV E-MBS region DL sub-frame

5. Proposed text for P802.16m/D2 [Modify the following text in Line 63, Page 584 as indicated :] 15.9.3.2 E-MBS Zone Configuration When the E-MBS Zone identifier list appears in AAI_NBR_ADV message with only one value of '0' for some of ABS's, it indicates that the corresponding neighbor ABSs are not affiliated with any E-MBS zone. The ABS sends AAI_DSA for establishment of connection for E-MBS, E-MBS ZONE shall be encoded in the AAI-DSA message. One ABS may have multiple E- MBS Zone IDs for different E-MBS services. To support inter-MBS zone transition, AMSs need to get E-MBS_Zone_IDs to which the neighboring ABS’s belong as well as any flow continuity across such neighboring zone. E-MBS configuration information that facilitates continuous reception of E-MBS data or seamless inter-MBS zone transition is carried in AAI_E-MBS-ADV message. AAI_E-MBS-ADV may be transmitted periodically or when it is needed. The cell-specific configuration indicator shall be set to 0b1 if AAI_E-MBS-ADV is transmitted, otherwise it shall be set to 0b0. If AAI_E-MBS- ADV is transmitted, the Assignment A-MAP in the next DL subframe following the E-MBS region shall indicate the allocation of AAI_E-MBS-ADV message. The content of AAI_E-MBS-ADV message may include the cell-specific configuration information such as MBS zone identifiers of serving BS, MBS zone identifiers of neighboring BSs.
