If a handoff direction message received from a base station is a hard handoff direction message, the mobile communication terminal transmits an acknowledgement message to the base station in response to the handoff direction message and then performs a hard handoff. If the handoff direction message received from the base station is a soft handoff direction message, the mobile communication terminal performs a soft handoff, incorporates an acknowledgement message into a soft handoff completion message when the soft handoff is completed, and transmits the soft handoff completion message containing the acknowledgement message to the base station.
