Abstract

The increasing attractiveness of multimedia group communications forces Mobile Operators to provide more useful services and to evolve their networking technologies to effectively distribute rich-media content to mobile communities. Context information shall have a highlight role on next generation networks when dealing with communications’ groups such as the ones target by MBMS and E-MBMS systems. Users’ situation information shall be used to increase the system effectiveness while augmenting the user experience. This paper proposes a convergent context-aware architecture where IMS is used to convey context information and to control MBMS and E-MBMS multimedia channels allowing Mobile Operators to easily offer innovative services over efficient networks.

Keywords: Context IMS MBMS E-MBMS
