FIELD: mobile communications; mobile communication systems for high-speed data transfer.
SUBSTANCE: when base station renders relaying service, mobile station receives configuration information for base stations adjacent to servicing base station. Configuration information shows if service transmission is possible from servicing base station to adjacent base stations and if adjacent base stations render relaying services. In the course of service transfer to adjacent base station, in case new one is adjacent to servicing base station and new base station does not render relaying service, mobile station requests new base station to render relaying service. If there is base station that does not render relaying service, mobile station requests servicing base station to initiate relaying service. Then servicing base station requests adjacent base stations to initiate relaying service.
EFFECT: minimizing useless consumption of communications resources.
