A branch candidate selecting method by a mobile station and a diversity
handover control method on a network side in DHO performance are provided
which consider a maximum cable branch number and maximum radio branch
number of the mobile station, when the mobile station detects the
plurality of addition branch candidates and deletion branch candidates.
The mobile station inserts a plurality of addition branch candidates and
deletion branch candidates, that is, all the DHO candidates into one
handover trigger signal, and notifies the network. The addition branch
candidates are put into addition information parameters in the handover
trigger signal, and the deletion branch candidates are put into deletion
information parameters. To simplify processing on the network side, the
network side separates the addition branch candidates from the deletion
branch candidates, and carries out sequential processing of them
independently.
