Abstract
A method of determining member Base Stations (BSs) providing cooperative communication to a Mobile Station (MS) in a communication system. The method includes when a candidate list of the member BSs generated using at least one of strengths of signals received from adjacent BSs and cell loading state information of the adjacent BSs is received from the MS, selecting candidate BSs having a service quality larger than or equal to a threshold from candidate BSs included in the candidate list as targets to receive a member negotiation; and performing a capability negotiation with each of the selected targets to receive the member negotiation to select final member BSs and transmitting information on the determined final member BSs to the MS.
