A handoff system where handoff requests are initiated not only by a home or serving base station, but also by neighboring base stations. As in conventional handoff, a serving base station may initiate a handoff request when the signal strength of one of its mobile stations falls below a predetermined threshold. In addition, neighboring base stations monitor the signal strength of neighboring mobile stations and request that a neighboring mobile station be handed off when that signal strength reaches a predetermined level. Thus, a handoff request may come from the serving base station because of a poor call connection or from a neighboring base station because of a possible strong call connection.
