<p>By arranging base stations in a wireless protocol with an ability to handle air interface transmissions on a class of service basis, as opposed to a specific station identification basis, mobility across base stations is achieved. In one embodiment, each station is assigned a class of service and each station can connect to any base station that recognizes that station's class of service. Class of service could, for example, be based on throughput required, fees paid by the station, etc. hi this manner, the base station need only know the class of service of a station and then can extend service to that station or not based on factors controlled from each base station, hi one embodiment, the class of service information provided with the 802.16f management model is used to verify the class of service of a station and to update base stations.</p> |
