Abstract:
1. A method for forming a moving network group by a mobile relay station (MRS) in a mobile multi-hop relay (MMR) system, the method comprising: determining, by the mobile relay station, whether a transportation means mounted with the mobile relay station is at a predetermined location derived from travel information; when a velocity information of the transportation means at the predetermined location is zero (0), determining, by the mobile relay station, whether to include a mobile station (MS) to the moving network group based at least partly upon a signal that the mobile station receives from the mobile relay station, the determining comprising: determining whether the on-board mobile station satisfies the first condition and the second condition, whenever the velocity information of the transportation means at the predetermined location is zero (0), and deleting the on-board mobile station from the moving network group when the on-board mobile station fails to satisfy at least one of the first and second conditions.
