Content: The concept of MBS Frequency Selection Area ID is defined in clause 6.5.4 of 3GPP TS 23.247[ Architectural enhancements for 5G multicast-broadcast services ]  [140]. The MBS Frequency Selection Area (FSA) ID is used for broadcast MBS session to guide the frequency selection of the UE. The MBS FSA ID identifies a preconfigured area within, and in proximity to, which the cell(s) announces the MBS FSA ID and the associating frequency (for details see 3GPP TS 38.300[ NR; NR and NG-RAN Overall description; Stage-2 ]  [141]). MBS FSA ID and their mapping to frequencies are provided to RAN nodes via OAM. An MBS FSA ID shall be a string of 6 hexadecimal digits.
