Abstract

A packet transferring/transmitting method is provided for use in a mobile communication system. In this packet transferring/transmitting method, an upper nodedetermines the implementation of handover (determination step), and a handover addressing nodetransfers, of a plurality of packets, a non-transmitted residual packet to a handover addressed node, and the upper nodetransmits a new packet to the handover addressed node(transfer/transmission step). This enables maintaining the number of users to be accommodated while securing a wide bandwidth, sharing a line with high efficiency at soft handover, avoiding data residual in the case of the employment of variable communication rate, and preventing an increase in retransmission.
