Abstract: An apparatus and method for updating a neighbor list in a mobile communication system are provided. The system includes a Mobile Station (MS), a second Base Station (BS), and a first BS. The MS stores first log information, performs a network entry process with the second BS, and generates and transmits second log information to the second BS. The second BS allocates a bandwidth to the MS, receives the second log information, determines if neighbor list update is required using the second log information and, if the neighbor list update is required, updates a neighbor list and transmits the updated neighbor list information to the previous BS.

Abstract: A method of controlling uplink access in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes: generating an access probability sequence consisting of an access probability determined with respect to a radio resource used for data transmission; transmitting data according to the access probability included in the access probability sequence; receiving a success/failure result on the data transmission; and regulating the access probability used in the data transmission according to the success/failure result. Accordingly, each user equipment performs a simple control process for attempting random uplink access according to an access probability sequence and for changing the access probability sequence according to success/failure of uplink data transmission, thereby decreasing a probability of collision between user equipments, thereby increasing data transmission efficiency in a system employing a plurality of user equipments.

Abstract: A method of allocating uplink resources in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises generating a first message which has a preamble and adaptively further includes resource request information based on a communication state with a base station and transmitting the first message to the base station.
