ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for performing a handoff in wireless communication system. The method includes the steps of establishing communication between a mobile subscriber and a serving cell, determining whether a target cell and the serving cell are collocated, sending a normal burst handoff command to a mobile subscriber, sending a normal burst from the mobile subscriber to the target cell including a time offset, and establishing communication between the mobile subscriber and the target cell. The apparatus relates to a wireless system including a serving cell and a target cell in communication with a mobile subscriber. The mobile subscriber is sent a normal burst handoff, including an instruction to the mobile subscriber to transmit in normal bursts and to main current alignment, when the target cell overlaps the serving cell.
