The objective of this TR is to document the progress of the study item to investigate and recommend an FEC algorithm for MCVideo that can be utilized equally by the two FEC procedures specified in
TS 23.280. The study will also consider whether the same or a similar algorithm may be utilized for other MC services over MBMS (e.g. MCData - file download, or MCPTT group communications). The use of FEC is within the context of the MC services common functional architecture as explained in
subclause 5.2.6 of 3GPP TS 23.280.
