A method for a mobile terminal to identify MBSFN frames, including:a mobile terminal receiving configuration parameters sent by an access network for indicating whether a wireless frame is a multicast/broadcast over a single frequency is network frame, namely, an MBSFN frame, and determining the wireless frame meeting the following formula as an MBSFN frame: SFN mod MBSFN_rep=MBSFN_offset;wherein MBSFN_rep is the value of the repetition period included in the configuration parameters; MBSFN_offset is an offset read from the configuration parameters, or is set to be 0 if no offset information is contained in the configuration parameters; “SFN” is the sequence number of the wireless frame, and “mod” represents the modulo operation.
