Abstract: A QoS-based call admission system and method for a mobile communication system. To establish a call for a mobile station according to the QoS of the call, upon request of setup of a call requiring a QoS guarantee, a base transceiver station determines whether a channel element is available. In the presence of an available channel element, the base transceiver station determines whether a remaining bandwidth can support a data rate required to guarantee the QoS. If the data rate is supported, the base transceiver station assigns the channel element and connects its intra switch to a base station controller. Then the base transceiver station transmits a call accept response signal to the base station controller.

Abstract: A base station controller (BSC) performs a handoff of a mobile terminal (MT) moving between cells of base transceiver stations (BTSs) in a mobile communication system. If a target BTS is selected as a handoff candidate for the MT as the MT moves from a cell of a source BTS in service toward a cell of the target BTS, the BSC transmits to the target BTS a first message for requesting the target BTS to buffer packets, and transmits packets to be transmitted to the MT to both the source BTS and the target BTS. If the target BTS is determined as a serving BTS for the MT, the BSC transmits to the target BTS a second message including a last sequence number in order to request the target BTS to transmit, to the MT, packets with sequence numbers following the last sequence number of a last packet transmitted from the source BTS to the MT, among the buffered packets.
