A paging system and method for use in a multimedia/broadcast multicast
service (MBMS). The paging system checks a paging indicator channel of a
UE (User Equipment), and determines whether there is a paging signal
associated with a broadcast service. If the paging signal associated with
the broadcast service is detected, the paging system recognizes the
channel information indicative of the paging fact, checks paging
information included in an ID for differentiating between the broadcast
service and other broadcast services and a paging response indicator
adapted to determine a transmission channel scheme of the broadcast
service, establishes a radio link, and receives control information using
the radio link. The base station controller adapted to manage a cell
including the UE transmits MBMS transmission scheme information to the UE
in advance using the paging information, resulting in maximum use
efficiency of RRC (Radio Resource Controller) resources.
