Apparatus and method for constructing neighbor node list in cellular communication system

摘要

Provided is an apparatus and method for constructing a neighbor node list in a cellular communication system. In the method, an MS acquires neighbor nodes through a scanning operation in an initial network entry procedure, inserts information about the acquired neighbor nodes into a predetermined message, and transmits the predetermined message to a serving station. The serving station updates a periodically-broadcast neighbor list using the information about the neighbor nodes. The MS does not discard but provides the information about the acquired neighbor nodes to the serving station (BS or RS), thereby making it easy for the serving station to acquire information about neighbor BSs and RSs.
