Abstract

A technique for content delivery in wireless networks which associates a desired broadcast/multicast (BCMC) territory (200) with the content, estimate cell sector coverage area (210) from a subscriber location data set, and then identifies a set of cell sectors (210) to be sent the content using a BCMC protocol. The method involves first receiving a description of a designated broadcast/multicast (BCMC) territory in terms of a physical area. Next, a content indicator associated with the BCMC territory (200) is identified. The content indicator identifies content, such as text or image data, that is to be supplied to subscribers located in the territory (200). A cell sector coverage area (210) is then estimated from a subscriber location data set wherein the data set includes at least a geographic location and a cell sector identifier for multiple subscribers. The BCMC territory description and the estimated cell sector coverage areas are then compared against the subscriber location data set to identify a set of targeted cell sectors. Finally, the content indicator is then sent to the set of targeted cell sectors using a BCMC protocol.
