  • the present invention relates generally to an apparatus and method for implementing handoff in a mobile communication system, and more particularly, to a novel apparatus and method for implementing handoff when a mobile station travels from a cell of the async mobile communication system to a cell of the sync mobile commumcation system.
  • the async mobile communication system may be, for example, UMTS adopted as the European standards and the sync mobile communication system may be IMT-2000 adopted as the American standards. These two systems are becoming increasingly harmonized and there is thus a need for various technologies that are compatible with both systems.

  • the handoff is a technology that enables users to continuously receive a call service without interruption when a mobile station travels from a present cell to an adjacent cell during the call service in a mobile communication system.
  • the handoff is classified into soft hand off and hard hand off.
  • the soft hand off the mobile station maintains a call using both a channel assigned by a target base station and a channel assigned by the present base station in service.
  • the mobile station abandons one of the two channels, whose quality has a value lower than a threshold of the pilot strength.
  • a channel assigned by the present base station in service is first released and then, connection to an adjacent base station is attempted.
  • the mobile station usually acquires information about adjacent cells and informs the base station of the information when a pilot signal received from one of the adjacent cells has strength higher than a threshold or requested by the base station.
  • the information sent to the base station is used as information about the handoff performed when the mobile station travels from a present cell to the adjacent cell during a call service.
  • the base station transmits the information about the handoff through a paging channel (for the sync communication system) or a broadcasting channel (for the async communication system).
  • a hard handoff takes place normally when the mobile station travels from a cell of the async mobile communication system to a cell of the sync mobile communication system.
  • the mobile station interrupts a call service from the async mobile communication system while it acquires information about the adjacent cells.
  • the mobile station has to perform the following procedure in order to interpret information about the sync mobile communication system.
  • the mobile station interprets a sync signal message stored in the sync signal frame transferred from the sync channel of the sync mobile communication system.
  • the transmission bit per 80 ms frame of the sync signal frame is 96 bits, and the sync signal message, including information the mobile station can communicate with the sync mobile communication system, has a length of 221 bits.

Then, the mobile station sets to detect information about the adjacent sync base stations in step 303, and detects pilot signals from the adjacent sync base stations in step 305. The mobile station determines in step 307 whether a pilot signal having a highest peak value is detected. Upon failure to detect such a pilot signal of highest peak value, the mobile station returns to step 305.
  • the mobile station proceeds to step 309 to receive sync frames through the forward sync channel of the sync base station from which the pilot signal having the highest peak value has been detected.
