Abstract

See full text

The method consists of analyzing a handoff request received from a source base station at a source base site controller (BSC). If the handoff request contains a preferred base site list (is from a MAHO environment) the request is forwarded to the mobile switching center. If the handoff request does not contain the preferred list, the BSC generates a candidate list and transmits measurement messages to each candidate base site. The candidate base sites take measurements and reply to the BSC. The BSC uses the replies to generate a preferred base site list which is forwarded to the MSC. When the MSC receives a preferred base site list, it selects a handoff base site and executes the handoff.
