The method includes receiving, by the mobile station, a first channel from a first base station, wherein the first channel includes an indication, wherein the indication has one of two states, wherein the base station transmits on forward link channels including a pilot channel, traffic channels and the first channel. The method also includes receiving, by the mobile station, a communication from the first base station on a condition that the indication has a first state of the two states, and selecting, by the mobile station, a second base station based on received pilot signals from a plurality of base stations on a condition that the indication has a second state of the two states. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for communication in a wireless code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system by a mobile station, the method comprising: receiving, by the mobile station, a first channel from a first base station, wherein the first channel includes an indication, wherein the indication has one of two states, wherein the base station transmits on forward link channels including a pilot channel, traffic channels and the first channel; receiving, by the mobile station, a communication from the first base station on a condition that the indication has a first state of the two states; and selecting, by the mobile station, a second base station based on received pilot signals from a plurality of base stations on a condition that the indication has a second state of the two states. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 further comprising receiving, by the mobile station, a communication from the second base station on a condition that an indication received on a first channel of the second base station has a first state of the two states. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein the communication is associated with registration of the mobile station with the first base station. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein the first channel is a sync channel. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein the indication is a flag signal. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1 wherein the first channel, the pilot channel and the traffic channels have different CDMA codes. ### Claim 7 A wireless code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile station comprising: a receiver is configured to receive a first channel from a first base station, wherein the first channel includes an indication, wherein the indication has one of two states, wherein the base station transmits on forward link channels including a pilot channel, traffic channels and the first channel; the receiver is further configured to receive a communication from the first base station on a condition that the indication has a first state of the two states; and a base station selector configured to select a second base station based on received pilot signals from a plurality of base stations on a condition that the indication has a second state of the two states. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The mobile station of claim 7 wherein the receive is further configured to receive a communication from the second base station on a condition that an indication received on a first channel of the second base station has a first state of the two states. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The mobile station of claim 7 wherein the communication is associated with registration of the mobile station with the first base station. ### Claim 10 (depends on 7) The mobile station of claim 7 wherein the first channel is a sync channel. ### Claim 11 (depends on 7) The mobile station of claim 7 wherein the indication is a flag signal. ### Claim 12 (depends on 7) The mobile station of claim 7 wherein the first channel, the pilot channel and the traffic channels have different CDMA codes. ### Claim 13 A wireless code division multiple access (CDMA) base station comprising: a transmitter is configured to transmit on forward link channels including a pilot channel, traffic channels and a first channel; wherein the first channel includes an indication, wherein the indication has one of two states; the transmitter is further configured to transmit a communication to a mobile station on a condition that the indication has a first state of the two states; and the transmitter is further configured to not transmit a communication to the mobile station on a condition that the indication has a second state of the two states, wherein the second state indicates that the mobile station is to select a second base station based on received pilot signals from a plurality of base stations. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The base station of claim 13 wherein the communication is associated with registration of the mobile station with the base station. ### Claim 15 (depends on 13) The base station of claim 13 wherein the first channel is a sync channel. ### Claim 16 (depends on 13) The base station of claim 13 wherein the indication is a flag signal. ### Claim 17 (depends on 13) The base station of claim 13 wherein the first channel, the pilot channel and the traffic channels have different CDMA codes.
