LTE: What is the difference between MCCH and SC-MCCH logical channels ?

+1 vote

I know one MCCH channel is associated to one MBSFNArea Configuration and MBSFNAreaConfiguration carries the configuration associated to a particular MBSFNArea. I have no idea of use of SC-MCCH logical channel. Can a cell support both logical channels simultaneously ? If both can exist together in a cell then UE will choose which channel ? Can someone please share his/her thoughts over these queries ? Thanks in advance.

I have very limited insight in mutlimedia multicast/broadcast services. An article says one LTE cell can have maximum of 8 MCCH channels and each MCCH configuration corresponds to configuration of one MBSFN area.
If this is correct then it concludes that one LTE cell can be part of max 8 MBSFN areas.

Each MBSFN area can be used to broadcast multiple multicast/broadcast services.
Now I want to how many TV channels (a kind of broadcast/multicast service) can be broadcasted ?
One related query is how an UE come know about the channels such as DD news, ESPN etc are being broadcasted in cell ?
