Upon handover, the data incompletely received by a source base station is retransmitted by a mobile station to a target base station, and then reversely transferred from the target base station to the source base station. By virtue of this reverse transfer control, the need to transfer all the received data from the source base station to the target base station upon handover can be eliminated, whereby it is possible to reduce the amount of traffic between the base stations. Moreover, ARQ processes are set respectively between the mobile station and the source base station and between the mobile station and the target base station, whereby it is possible for the mobile station to transmit new uplink data to the target base station, in parallel with the ARQ process with the source base station under the reverse transfer control.
