Synchronization system and synchronizing method for plurality of base stations and mobile station in a reverse link wireless transmission

A wireless communication system comprising:

• a serving base station;
• plurality of non-serving base stations;
• and
• a mobile station,
• wherein:
• each of the plurality of non-serving base stations is configured to:
• generate synchronization information suitable for synchronizing the mobile station with the non-serving base station, the synchronization information generated using a reverse pilot signal received from the mobile station, and
• generate a control signal including the synchronization information and transmit the control signal to the serving base station when the base station is a non-serving base station;
• the serving base station is configured to:
• receive the control signals from the plurality of non-serving base stations, and transmit the control signals to the mobile station;
• the mobile station is configured to:
• receive the control signals, and
• select a new serving base station by using the received control signals.
