METHOD FOR PERFORMING A HANDOFF IN A TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method is disclosed for performing a handoff in a telecommunication system. The method comprises: Step I: performing a first multi-cell joint detection process for decoding for the communications within the home cell when a mobile terminal enters a handoff region between a home cell and one or more neighboring cells; Step II: performing a handoff process for a mobile terminal when in the home cell to join a target neighboring cell; and Step III: performing a second multi-cell joint detection process for decoding for the communications between the mobile terminal and the target neighboring cell. Therefore, the present invention can solve the problems in handoff of cells in telecommunication system, improve the decoding for the uplink or downlink communications, and enhance the throughout and performance of the telecommunication system.
