Multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) receiving sate reporting method and equipment

The embodiment of the invention discloses a multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) receiving state reporting method and MBMS receiving state reporting equipment. By the technical scheme of the embodiment of the invention, a base station can timely inform an MBMS coordinating entity (MCE) of the MBMS receiving state of a terminal, and then the MCE determines whether to perform resource changing or not according to a current receiving state, so air interface multicast/broadcast over single-frequency network (MBSFN) resources are ensured to be utilized more effectively.
