SIGNALING EXCHANGE FOR HANDOVER CONTROL FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS

摘要

A method according to this invention includes transmitting, from a mobile station to a base station in a wireless network, a message (e.g., a subscriber station basic capability (SBC) request message) indicating whether or not the mobile station supports base station- controlled handover for the mobile station. The method may also include receiving, by the mobile station from the base station, a message (e.g., a subscriber station basic capability (SBC) response message) indicating whether or not the base station supports base-station controlled handover.
