Abstract
A method is provided for controlling a wireless communications system. The method comprises communicating data to a first base station, and selecting a switchover time for ceasing communications with the first base station and beginning communications with a second base station. The switchover time is based on channel conditions associated with the communications to the first and second base stations, such as SIR.
