Abstract

A base station for use in a wireless network capable of communicating with mobile stations located in a coverage area of the wireless network. The base station comprises a first base station controller (BSC) that receives data packets from a content server via a packet data network coupled to the first BSC and transmits the received data packets to a first one of the mobile stations via a first base transceiver subsystem (BTS) associated with the first BSC. The first BSC, in response to a first control message received from a second BSC, forwards the received data packets to the second BSC for subsequent transmission to the first mobile station.
