Abstract

Access points for supporting wireless communications, a packet transmission device, and terminals for handing-over between service areas are provided. An existing terminal is provided with respect to this access point for performing a Quality of Source (QoS) guarantee. Accordingly, when a new terminal is handed over to be engaged in wireless communications with this access point, the priority of the packet associated with the existing terminal and/or new terminal is changed.
