Embodiment Construction

[0036] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.

[0037] The present invention can be implemented in various types of mobile communication systems such as cellular, PCS (Personal Communication Services) or PHS (Personal Handyphone System). The term 'cellular' is used herein to refer to any type of communication system that uses cells. There are various types of mobile stations, including mobile phones, cell phones, PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) and computers, and any other device with wireless communication capabilities. A mobile station may also be called a mobile terminal or terminal.

[0038] The following describes idle mode handover in a mobile communication system. Idle mode handoff may also be referred to as idle handoff. To perform the te...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for idle mode handoff in an overlapping area of a multi-channel cell is provided. By monitoring different frequencies serviced by neighboring base stations, when a mobile station is located in an overlapping region between cells and the frequency channel being serviced in a multi-channel region is different from a channel being serviced in the neighboring base station, an idle mode handoff between cells may be smoothly performed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to mobile communication systems, and more particularly to handover in mobile communication systems. Background technique [0002] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of an exemplary mobile communication system. Referring to Fig. 1, cellular mobile communication is a type of mobile communication technology in which a communication service area is divided into a plurality of cells, and each cell has a base station (BS) centrally controlled by a mobile switching center (MSC) for Continuous communication services are provided to subscribers as they move between cells. [0003] A cell of a cellular mobile communication network is a single-channel cell serving one frequency channel. However, in areas with large populations, such as large cities, using only one frequency channel may not be sufficient to accommodate subscribers. Thus, in these areas, multi-channel cells with one or more channels may be used ...
