Handover method and system in a broadband wireless access communication system

摘要

Disclosed is a hard handover method and system for use in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) communication system. The method and system includes dividing a data transmission field for mobile stations (MSs) into a handover field and a normal user field, allocating at least one subchannel in the normal user field to non-handover MSs located in a non-handover region, allocating at least one subchannel in the handover field to handover MSs located in a handover region, and performing communication through the allocated at least one subchannel.
