Abstract

Disclosed is a method of performing procedures for network entry of a mobile station in a broadband wireless access system. The method includes being allocated with transmission parameters from a base station, at least one time performing a request of an uplink band for transmission of an uplink management message to the base station, and receiving a downlink message for next procedure from the base station if the uplink band is not allocated even after the lapse of a preset time period.

Claims (24)

1. A method of performing handover of a mobile station in a power saving mode and controlling power saving class configuration information of a first base station during handover from the first base station to a second base station, the method comprising:

transmitting a first ranging request message for network entry from the mobile station to the second base station;

receiving a first ranging response message from the second base station, the first ranging response message including first control information of the power saving class configuration information of the first base station;

processing the power saving class configuration information of the first base station according to the first control information;

transmitting a request message for activation of an updated power saving class from the mobile station to the second base station;

receiving, from the second base station, a response message to the request message;

activating the updated power saving class according to the response message; and

performing conversion to the power saving mode,

wherein the first control information includes a power saving class update indication and a power saving class parameter, the power saving class update indication indicating an update of the power saving class configuration information of the first base station and the power saving class parameter corresponding to a new power saving class configuration information to be updated,

wherein the mobile station updates existing power saving class configuration information to the power saving class parameter included in the first control information, and

wherein an item of the existing power saving class configuration information, which is not updated, is released.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

canceling handover to the second base station and performing re-entry to the first base station;

transmitting a second ranging request message for network re-entry to the first base station;

receiving a second ranging response message from the first base station, the second ranging response message including second control information of the power saving class configuration information of the first base station; and

processing the power saving class configuration information of the first base station according to the second control information.

3. A method of performing handover of a mobile station in a power saving mode and controlling power saving class configuration information of the mobile station during handover from a first base station to a second base station, the method comprising:

receiving a ranging request message for network entry to the second base station from the mobile station;

transmitting a ranging response message to the mobile station, the ranging response message including control information of the power saving class configuration information of the first base station;

receiving a request message for activation of an updated power saving class from the mobile station; and

transmitting, to the mobile station, a response message to the request message for activating the updated power saving class,

wherein the control information includes a power saving class update indication and a power saving class parameter, the power saving class update indication indicating an update of the power saving class configuration information of the first base station and the power saving class parameter corresponding to a new power saving class configuration information to be updated,

wherein the mobile station updates existing power saving class configuration information to the power saving class parameter included in the control information, and

wherein an item of the existing power saving class configuration information, which is not updated, is released.
