Abstract
The present invention provides a method of handing off a communication unit in a cellular communication system. The method includes communicating initialization frame data from a target cell transceiver to a base site transcoder; establishing communication between the target cell transceiver and the communication unit; terminating transmission of initialization frame data; communicating ordinary frame data received by the target cell transceiver from the communication unit to the base site transcoder; and handing off the communication unit to the target cell transceiver upon detecting a transition from initialization frame data to ordinary frame data at the base site transcoder.
