Abstract:
A communication system, a base station, a user equipment (UE), and a timing synchronization method for the base station thereof are provided. The communication system includes a first base station, a second base station and the user equipment. The UE is located within coverage of the first base station and the second base station. The first base station and the second base station respectively measure signal stability of the user equipment so that the second base station selects the user equipment based on the measurements for the stability of the signals. The first base station computes a first timing error for transmitting or receiving message between the first base station and the user equipment then transmits the first timing error to the second base station. The second base station adjusts a timing difference between the first base station and the second base station through the first timing error.

Claim (Index 1):
A user equipment (UE), located in a communication coverage of a first base station and a second base station, comprising:\n a transceiver, exchanging information with the first base station and the second base station; and a processor, coupled to the transceiver, wherein the processor exchanges information with the first base station through the transceiver, the transceiver receives a first instruction message from the first base station, the processor transmits a reference message to the second base station through the transceiver according to the first instruction message, the transceiver receives a synchronization message from the second base station and receives a second instruction message from the first base station, the processor records a round-trip time (RTT) of transmitting and receiving the reference message and the synchronization message with the second base station according to the second instruction message and transmits the RTT to the first base station through the transceiver, wherein the reference message and the synchronization message are periodic signals.
