Method for performing inter-mobile station (MS) handover in radio access system and MS therefor

摘要

A method of performing inter-mobile station (MS) handover in a radio access system and an MS therefor are disclosed. The method includes a first MS receiving an inter-MS handover indication message from a base station (BS) while performing inter-MS communication with a second MS, and the first MS performing inter-MS handover from the second MS to another MS according to the inter-MS handover indication message. The inter-MS handover is decided according to channel quality between the first MS and the second MS or channel quality between the second MS and the BS.

1. A method of performing inter-mobile station handover in a radio access system, the method performed by a source mobile station (MS) and comprising:
receiving reference signals for channel measurement from one or more MSs, while performing inter-MS communication with a first MS; measuring channel quality between the source MS and the one or more MSs using the reference signals for channel measurement; transmitting, to a base station (BS), information about the measured channel quality between the source MS and the one or more MSs; receiving an inter-MS handover indication message and information indicating a second MS among the one or more MSs, from the BS; and performing an inter-MS handover from the first MS to the second MS according to the inter-MS handover indication message, wherein the second MS is determined by the BS based on the information about the measured channel quality between the source MS and the one or more MSs.
