During MBMS content transmission, data may be lost. Three file repair schemes were proposed to retransmit the corrupted MBMS data. However, these schemes may introduce extra data traffic or signaling overheads. This paper proposes the Reuse Bearer Service (RBS) file repair scheme to resolve this issue. We analyze the four file repair schemes by analytical models and simulation experiments. This paper shows that the proposed RBS scheme may significantly outperform the previously proposed schemes. © 2008 IEEE.application/pdf620552 bytesapplication/pdfen-USFile repair; Mobile core network; Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS); Retransmission scoping; Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS)Broadcasting; Computer networks; Mobile telecommunication systems; Multicasting; Multimedia systems; Repair; Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy; Telephone systems; Wireless networks; Wireless telecommunication systems; File repair; Mobile core network; Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS); Retransmission scoping; Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS); MaintenanceA File Repair Scheme for UMTS MBMS Servicejournal article10.1109/TVT.2008.9196122-s2.0-57049104508http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/155256/1/23.pdf
