A method for performing a handover by a subscriber station (SS) in a broadband wireless communication system including a serving base station (BS) communicating with the SS, and at least one neighbor BS neighboring the serving BS. The SS receives downlink signals from the serving BS and the neighbor BS; measures an arrival time difference between the downlink signal received from the serving BS and the downlink signal received from the neighbor BS; and transmits the measured arrival time difference to the serving BS.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for performing a handover by a subscriber station (SS) in a broadband wireless communication system including a serving base station (BS) communicating with the SS, and at least one neighbor BS neighboring the serving BS, the method comprising the steps of: receiving downlink signals from the serving BS and the neighbor BS; measuring an arrival time difference between the downlink signal received from the serving BS and the downlink signal received from the neighbor BS; transmitting a handover request message including the measured arrival time difference to the serving BS; and receiving fast ranging information from the neighbor BS through a message in which the arrival time difference is reflected. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the arrival time difference is a value used for compensating for a round trip delay (RTD) caused by signal transmission/reception between the selected BS and the SS located in a distance from the serving BS. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the round trip delay (RTD_BS2) is estimated using an RTD (RTD_BS1) of the downlink signal from the serving BS and the arrival time difference (DTPA: Difference Time of downlink frame Preamble Arrival) between the downlink signal from the serving BS and the downlink signal from the neighbor BS in accordance with RTD--BS2=RTD--BS 1+2DTPA. 4. A method for performing a handover by a subscriber station (SS) from a serving base station (BS) to a target BS selected from a plurality of neighbor BSs in a broadband wireless communication system including the serving BS communicating with the SS, and the plurality of neighbor BSs neighboring the serving BS, the method comprising the steps of: measuring a arrival time difference of a downlink signal received from the target BS relative to a downlink signal received from the serving BS; estimating a round trip delay between the SS and the neighbor BS using the measured arrival time difference; transmitting to the serving BS a handover request message including the estimated round trip delay; receiving from the target BS a fast ranging information element adjusted by the estimated round trip delay; and performing initial ranging for handover to the target BS upon receiving the fast ranging information element. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the arrival time delay of the downlink signal received from the target BS relative to the downlink signal received from the serving BS is a value used for compensating for the round trip delay (RTD) caused by signal transmission/reception between the target BS and the SS located in a distance from the serving BS. 6. The method of claim 4, wherein the round trip delay (RTD_BS2) to the target BS is calculated by reflecting the arrival time difference (DTPA: Difference Time of downlink frame Preamble Arrival) between the serving BS and the target BS in an RTD value (RTD_BS1) between the SS and the serving BS in accordance with RTD--BS2=RTD--BS 1+2DTPA. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the RTD to the target BS is used as for time correction reflected by the SS during signal transmission to the target BS, through an initial ranging between the SS and the target BS. 8. The method of claim 4, further comprising the steps of: receiving a handover response message including a temporary connection identifier (CID) allocated to the SS from the serving BS in response to handover request message after transmitting the handover request message; receiving a fast ranging information element from the target BS upon determining handover to the target BS; and performing initial ranging with the target BS through the temporary CID upon receiving the fast ranging information element. 9. The method of claim 8, further comprising the steps of: recognizing, by the target BS, the SS through a handover notification message transmitted from the serving BS; and allocating, by the target BS, a corresponding temporary CID to the recognized SS, and transmitting to the serving BS a handover notification response message including the temporary CID, wherein the serving BS transmits the temporary CID received from the target BS to the SS through the handover response message. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the temporary CID is a CID temporarily used by the SS to perform an initial ranging to the target BS and is comprised of 16 bits. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the target BS withdraws the temporary CID if there is no traffic connection using the allocated temporary CID until a predetermined time. 12. A method for performing a handover by a subscriber station (SS) from a serving base station (BS) to a target BS selected from a plurality of neighbor BSs in a broadband wireless communication system including the serving BS communicating with the SS, and the plurality of neighbor BSs neighboring the serving BS, the method comprising the steps of: estimating a round trip delay (RTD) value to the target BS based on an RTD value to the serving BS and a signal arrival time difference between a signal received from the serving BS and a signal received from the target BS; transmitting the estimated RTD value to the target BS to the serving BS; and determining to perform a handover to the target BS, and receiving from the target BS a message including an allocated fast ranging information element and the estimated RTD value. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the RTD value to the target BS is calculated by RTD--BS2=RTD--BS 1+2DTPA where RTD_BST denotes an RTD value to the target BS, RTD_BS1 denotes an RTD value to the serving BS, and DPTA denotes an arrival time difference between a signal received from the service BS and a signal received from the target BS. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the signals received from the serving BS and the target BS, and used to calculate the arrival time difference, are downlink frame preamble (DFP) signals. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein after transmitting a handover request message including the signal arrival time difference to the serving BS, the SS receives from the serving BS a handover response message including a temporary connection identifier (CID) allocated by the target BS. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the SS performs an initial ranging with the target BS using the allocated temporary CID. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein the temporary CID is a CID temporarily used by the SS to perform an initial ranging to the target BS and is comprised of 16 bits. 18. The method of claim 15, wherein the target BS withdraws the temporary CID if there is no traffic connection using the allocated temporary CID until a predetermined time. 19. The method of claim 12, wherein upon receiving the allocated fast ranging information element, the SS performs fast ranging with the target BS through the allocated fast ranging information element.
