Abstract

A method for transmitting and receiving inter-radio access technology (RAT) information for inter-RAT handover between a mobile station and a base station in a radio access system. A method for transmitting inter-RAT information for inter-RAT handover comprises: receiving a super frame header (SFH) including a flag indicating whether the inter-RAT information is transmitted in a current superframe and a start frame number field indicating a predetermined frame at which the inter-RAT information is transmitted, and if the flag is set, acquiring the inter-RAT information at a predetermined frame indicated by the start frame number field.
