Abstract
A method for providing wireless communications system providers to adjust when soft and hard handoffs occur relative to the signal strengths of surrounding antennae. This is achieved by providing two sets of parameters. The first set of parameters is used to adjust either hard or soft handoffs, and the second set of parameters are added as an offset to the first set of parameters to adjust the other handoff, thereby, allowing the wireless communications system providers system to adjust soft and hard handoffs independently.
