This solution provides the procedure which allows the NRM client to report the broadcast reception quality to the NRM server which is used to make the decision whether to use the unicast delivery to the VAL UE(s) which are suffering bad broadcast reception quality due to e.g., move out of the broadcast service area.
An NRM client monitors the broadcast MBS session to receive VAL data. Based on the received quality (e.g., radio level quality, RTP packet loss), the NRM client needs to inform the NRM server that the NRM client is able to receive the VAL data on the broadcast MBS session with sufficient quality or not.
This estimation of the broadcast reception quality may be dependent on, for example, the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) and measurements from the reference signals from the NG-RAN node(s), RTP packet loss, BLER of the received VAL data.
