Abstract
In one embodiment, a mobile radio station in communication with a current base station of a plurality of base stations receives hello packets from one or more of the base stations. The hello packets from the current base station are received on a first frequency via a first mobile radio unit (M1) and the hello packets from one or more base stations are received on a second frequency via a second mobile radio unit (M2). When the signal strength value of the current base station exceeds a threshold value, the mobile radio station: selects a destination from the plurality of base stations based on the destination having a highest signal strength value among those in the plurality of base stations that sent hello packets to M2 on the second frequency, and forces a handoff from M1 to M2, by establishing a new link between M2 and the destination base station.
