Abstract
A first wireless base station provides a communication device access to a remote network over a wireless communication link. The wireless communication link provides poor connectivity between the mobile communication device and the first wireless base station. The first wireless base station receives a notification indicating that the communication device is within wireless range of at least a second wireless base station. To initiate a handoff of the communication device from the first wireless base station to the second wireless base station, the first wireless base station transmits a wireless signal encoded to indicate that the wireless signal was transmitted from the second wireless base station. Communication of the wireless signal causes the communication device to perceive that it receives a strong signal from the second wireless base station, prompting the communication device to perform a handoff from the first wireless base station to the second wireless base station.
