Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a broadband wireless aceess communication system, and more particularly to an apparatus and a method for selecting a serving base station according to a drop of a mobile subscriber station during a communication. 2. Description of the Related Art Recently, extensive studies and research have been being carried out for the 4th generation ("4G") communication systems in order to provide subscribers with services having a superior quality of service ("QoS") at higher transmission speeds. In particular, studies are being actively carried out in relation to the 4G communication systems in order to provide high speed services having a superior QoS through broadband wireless access communication systems, such as wireless local area network ("LAN") communication systems and wireless metropolitan area network ("MAN") communication systems. while ensuring the mobility of the broadband wireless access communication systems. The wireless MAN communication system has a wide service coverage area and provides data at a higher transmission speed than a LAN system, and as such the wireless MAN communication system is adaptable for a high-speed communication service. However, the wireless MAN communication system does not take into consideration the mobility of a user, that is, subscriber station ("SS"). so a handover, which is required when the SS moves at a high speed, is not taken into consideration in the wireless MAN communication system. The wireless MAN communication system is one type of broadband wireless access communication system and has a wider service coverage area and higher transmission speed as compared with those of a wireless LAN communication system. In order to provide a broadband transport network for a physical channel of the wireless MAN communication system, an IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) 802.16a communication system utilizing an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing ("OFDM") scheme and an orthogonal frequency division multiple access ("OFDMA") scheme has been suggested. As the IEEE 802.16a communication system applies the OFDM/OFDMA schemes to the wireless MAN system, the physical channel signals can be transmitted through a plurality of sub-carriers so that a high-speed data transmission is possible. In short, the IEEE 802.16a communication system is a broadband wireless access communication system using the OFDM/OFDMA schemes. EP 0325713 discloses an improved cellular telephone communication system is described having operational steps which prevent a call from being dropped due to a radiotelephone (130) not receiving a handoff instruction from its host base site (115). The system includes a switch controller (122) for determining that the radiotelephone requires a handoff from a first base site coverage area (110) to a second base site coverage area (112) and for communicating a handoff message to the associated first (115) and second base site equipment (119). The first base site equipment then transmits the handoff message to the radiotelephone. If the radiotelephone does not receive the message, it determines that the call has been lost, siezes a signalling channel from the second base site, and requests, via the second base site a call reconnection by transmitting a special message. The second base site then informs the radiotelephone of the handoff instruction and the handoff is completed with a successful reconnection of the call. Hereinafter, a structure of a conventional IEEE 802.16a communication system will be described with reference to Figure 1. Figure 1 is a structure diagram schematically illustrating the conventional IEEE 802.16a communication system. Referring to Figure 1, the IEEE 802.16a communication system has a single cell structure and includes a base station (BS) 100 and a plurality of SSs 110, 120 and 130 managed by the base station 100. The base station 100 conducts communications with the SSs 110, 120 and 130 using the OFDM/OFDMA schemes. Hereinafter, a structure of a downlink frame of the IEEE 802.16a communication system will be described with reference to Figure 2. Figure 2 is a structure diagram schematically illustrating the structure of the downlink frame of the IEEE 802.16a communication system. Referring to Figure 2, the downlink frame includes a preamble fields 200, a broadcast control field 210, and a plurality of time division multiplex ("TDM") fields 220 and 230. A synchronous signal, that is, a preamble sequence for synchronizing the SSs with the base stations, is transmitted through the preamble field 200. The broadcast control field 210 includes a DL (downlink)_MAP field 211 and a UL (uplink)_MAP field 213. The DL_MAP field 211 is a field for transmitting a DL_MAP message. Information elements ("IEs") included in the DL_MAP message are represented in Table 1. As shown in Table 1. the DL. MAP message includes a plurality of IEs, such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted, PHY (physical) Synchronization Field corresponding to modulation demodulation schemes applied to a physical channel for achieving synchronization. DCD Count representing a count according to the variation of a configuration of a downlink channel descript ("DCD") message including a downlink burst profile, Base Station II), and Number of DI. MAP Elements n representing the number of elements remaining after the Base Station ID. Although it is not shown in Table 1, the DL MAP message also includes information related to the ranging codes assigned to each ranging, which will be described later. In addition, the UI. MAP field 213 is a field for transmitting a UL MAP message. IEs included in the UL. MAP message are represented in Table 2. As shown in Table 2, the 2.the UL_MAP message includes a plurality of IEs. such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted. Uplink Channel II) representing an available uplink channel ID. UCD Count representing a count according to the variation of a configuration of an uplink channel descript ("UCD") message including an uplink burst profile, and Number of UL_MAP Elements n representing the number of elements remaining after the UCD count. The Uplink Channel ID is allocated only to a medium access control ("MAC") sub-layer. The TDM field s 220 and 230 are field s corresponding to time slots which are allocated according to the TDM. TDM A (time division multiple access) schemes corresponding to the SSs. The base station transmits broadcast information to the SSs, which are managed by the base station, through the DL MAP field 211 of the downlink frame by using a predetermined center carrier. As the SSs are powered on, the SSs monitor all frequency bands, which arc preset in the SSs, in order to detect a reference channel signal, such as a pilot channel signal having the highest carrier to interference and noise ratio ("CINR"). An SS selects a base station, which has transmitted to the SS the pilot signal having the highest CINR, as a base station for the SS. The SS can then recognize information controlling the uplink and the downlink of the SS and information representing a real data transmission reception position by checking the DL MAP field 211 and the UL_MAP field 213 of the downlink frame transmitted from the base station. A configuration of the UCD message is represented in Table 3. Table 3 As shown in Table 3. the UCD message includes a plurality of IEs. such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted, Uplink channel ID representing an available uplink channel ID. Configuration Change Count counted in the base station, mini-time slot size representing a size of a mini-lime slot of an uplink physical channel, Ranging Backoff start representing a start point of backoff using an initial ranging, that is, representing a size of an initial backoff window using the initial ranging. Ranging Backoff End representing an end point of backoff using an initial ranging, that is, representing a size of a final backoff window, Request Backoff start representing a start point of backoff for contention data and requests, that is, representing a size of an initial backoff window, and Request Backoff End representing an end point of backoff for contention data and requests, that is. representing a size of a final backoff window. A backoff value is a waiting time required for the next ranging if the present ranging fails. If the SS fails to perform the ranging, the base station must transmit the backoff value, i.e. the waiting lime for the next ranging, to the SS. For instance, if the backoff value is determined as "10" based on the ranging backoff start and the ranging backoff end. the SS must perform the next ranging after by passing 210 ranging chances (1024 ranging chances) according to a truncated binary exponential backoff algorithm. A structure of an uplink frame of the IEEE 802.16a communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a structure diagram schematically illustrating the structure of the uplink frame of the IEEE 802.16a communication system. Prior to explaining FIG. 3, a description will be made in relation to rangings. such as an initial ranging, a maintenance ranging, that is, a periodic ranging, and a bandwidth request ranging, used for the IEEE 802.16a communication system. First, the initial ranging will be described. The initial ranging is carried out in order to synchronize the base station with the SS, in which a time offset and a transmit power between the SS and the base station are precisely adjusted. That is, alter the SS has been powered on, the SS receives the DL MAP message and the Ul._MAP 'UCD message in order to synchronize with the base station. Then, the initial ranging is carried out with respect to the SS in order to adjust the lime offset and the transmit power of the SS in relation to the base station. Herein, since the IEEE 802.16a communication system uses the OFDM/OFDMA schemes, ranging sub-channels and ranging codes are required for the initial ranging. Thus, the base station assigns available ranging codes to the SS according to the object or the type of rangings. In detail, the ranging codes are created by segmenting a pseudo-random noise (""PN") sequence having a predetermined bit length into predetermined ranging code units. In general, two ranging sub-channels, having a 53-bit length, forms one ranging channel and a PN code is segmented through a ranging channel having a 106-bit length, thereby forming the ranging codes. Such ranging codes are assigned to the SS, for instance, a maximum of 48 ranging codes (RC #1 to RC #48) can be assigned to the SS. At least two ranging codes are used for the initial ranging, the periodic ranging and the bandwidth request ranging as default values with respect to each SS. That is, the ranging codes are differently assigned according to the initial ranging, the periodic ranging and the bandwidth request ranging. For instance, N ranging codes are assigned for the initial ranging, M ranging codes are assigned for the periodic ranging, and L ranging codes are assigned for the bandwidth request ranging. As mentioned above, the assigned ranging codes are transmitted to the SS through the UCD message and the SS performs the initial ranging by using the ranging codes included in the UCD message in match with objects of the ranging codes. Second, the periodic ranging will be described. The periodic ranging is periodically carried out by means of the SS having the time offset and the transmit power adjusted through the initial ranging, in such a manner that the SS can adjust the channel status with respect to the base station. The SS performs the periodic ranging by using ranging codes assigned thereto for the periodic ranging. Third, the periodic ranging will be described. The bandwidth request ranging is carried out by means of the SS having the time offset and the transmit power adjusted through the initial ranging, wherein the SS requests a bandwidth assignment in order to communicate with the base station. Referring back to FIG. 3, the uplink frame consists of an initial maintenance opportunities filed 300 using the initial ranging and the maintenance ranging, that is, the periodic ranging, a request contention opportunities filed 310 using the bandwidth request ranging, and SS scheduled data fields 320 including uplink data of the SSs. The initial maintenance opportunities filed 300 includes a plurality of access burst intervals including the real initial ranging and the periodic ranging and a collision interval created because of the collision between the access burst intervals. The request contention opportunities filed 310 includes a plurality of bandwidth request intervals including the real bandwidth request ranging and a collision interval created because of the collision between the bandwidth request intervals. In addition, the SS scheduled data fileds 320 consist of a plurality of SS scheduled data fileds (first SS scheduled data filed to SS Nth scheduled data filed) and SS transition gaps formed between the SS scheduled data fileds (first SS scheduled data filed to SS Nth scheduled data filed). An uplink interval usage code ("UIUC") filed is provided for recoding information representing the usage of the offset recorded in the offset filed. The UIUC field is shown in Table 4. As shown in Table 4. if "2" is recorded in the UIUC filed, the starting offset used for the initial ranging is recorded in the offset filed. If "3" is recorded in the UIUC filed, the starting offset used for the bandwidth request ranging or the maintenance ranging is recorded in the offset filed. As mentioned above, the offset filed is provided to record starting offset values used for the initial ranging, the bandwidth request ranging or the maintenance ranging corresponding to information recorded in the UIUC filed. Information related to the characteristics of a physical channel transmitted from the UIUC filed is recorded in the UCD. A ranging process between the base station and the SS in the IEEE 802.16a communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a signal flow diagram illustrating the ranging process between the base station and the SS in the IEEE 802.16a communication system. Referring to FIG. 4, as an SS 400 is powered on, the SS 400 monitors all of the frequency bands, which arc preset in the SS 400. in order to detect a pilot channel signal having the highest CINR. In addition, the SS 400 selects a base station 420 which has transmitted the pilot signal having the highest CINR to the SS 400 as a base station for the SS 400, so the SS 400 receives the preamble of the downlink frame transmitted from the base station 420. thereby obtaining system synchronization with respect to the base station 420. As described above, when the system synchronization is attained between the SS 400 and the base station 420, the base station 420 transmits the DL_MAP message and the UL_MAP message to the SS 400 (steps 411 and 413). Herein, as described above with reference to Table 1. the DL_MAP message notifies the SS 400 of the information required for the SS 400 to obtain the system synchronization with respect to the base station 420 in the downlink and information about a structure of the physical channel capable of receiving messages transmitted to the SS 400 from the downlink. In addition, as describe above with reference to Table 2, the UL_ MAP message notifies the SS 400 of the information about a scheduling period of the SS 400 in the uplink and the structure of the physical channel. In addition, the DL_MAP message is periodically broadcast to all of the SSs from the base station 420. If a predetermined SS, that is, if the SS 400 can continuously receive the UL MAP message, it will be represented that the SS 400 is synchronized with the base station 420. That is, the SS 400 receiving the 1)1. MAP message can receive all of the messages transmitted to the downlink. In addition, as described above with reference to Table 3, if the SS 400 fails to access to the base station 420, the base station 420 transmits the UCD message including the information representing the available backoff value to the SS 400. The SS 400. which has been synchronized with the base station 420. transmits a ranging request ("RNG_REQ") message to the base station 420 (step 415). Upon receiving the RNG REQ message from the SS 400. the base station 420 transmits a ranging response ("RNG RSP") message including information required for correcting frequency for the ranging, time and transmit power to the SS 400 (step 417). A configuration of the RNG_REQ message is represented in Table 5. Table 5 In Table 5, the "Downlink Channel ID" is a downlink channel identifier included in the RNG_REQ message received in the SS through the UCD and the "Pending Until Complete" is a priority of transmitted ranging responses. If the "Pending Until Complete'" is "0". a previously} transmitted ranging response has a priority, and if the "Pending Until Complete" is not "0", a presently transmitted ranging response has a priority. A configuration of (he RNG RSP message is represented in Table 6. In Table 6, the "Uplink Channel ID" is an ID of an uplink channel included in the RNGREQ message. Since the IEEE 802.16a communication system shown in FIG. 4 relates to a fixed SS, that is. since the IEEE 802.16a communication system shown in FIG. 4 does not take into consideration the mobility of the SS, the base station 420 communicating with the SS 400 becomes a serving base station. The IEEE 802.16a communication system has the signal cell structure in which the mobility of the SS is not considered. Meanwhile, an IEEE. 802.16e communication system is defined as a communication system in which the mobility of the SS is added to the IEEE 802.16a communication system. Thus, the IEEE 802.16e communication system must consider the mobility of the SS under a multi-cell environment. In order to ensure the mobility of the SS under the multi-cell environment, the operations of the SS and the base station must be changed. To this end, various studies have been carried out relating to a handover of the SS in order to provide for the mobility to the SS under the multi-cell environment. A structure of a conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a structure diagram schematically illustrating the structure of the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system. Referring to FIG. 5, the IEEE 802.16e communication system has a multi- cell structure consisting of cells 500 and 550 and includes a first base station 510 for managing the cell 500, a second base station 540 for managing the cell 550, and a plurality of mobile subscriber stations ("MSSs") 511, 513, 530, 551. and 553. The MSS signify an SS having mobility. The base stations 510 and 540 communicate with the MSSs 511, 513, 530, 551. and 553 using the OFDM OFDMA schemes. From among the MSSs 511, 513, 530, 551, and 553, the MSS 530 is positioned in a boundarv cell formed between the cell 500 and the cell 550, that is. the MSS 530 is positioned in a handover region, Thus. the MSS 530 must be provided with a handover function in order to realize the mobility of the MSS 530. In the IEEE 802.16e communication svstem, a MSS receives pilot channel signals transmitted from a plurality of base stations and measures the CTNR of the pilot channel signals. In addition, the MSS selects a base station, which has transmitted a pilot signal having a highest CTNR, as a base station of the MSS. That is. the MSS regards the base station transmitting the pilot signal having the highest CINR as a serving base station of the MSS. After selecting the serving base station, the MSS receives the downlink frame and the uplink frame transmitted from the serving base station. Herein, the downlink frame and the uplink frame of the IEEE 802.16e communication system have structures identical to those of the downlink frame and the uplink frame of the IEEE 802.16a communication system described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. The serving base station transmits a mobile neighbor advertisement ("MOB_NBR_ADV") message to the MSS. A configuration of the MOBNBR_ADV message is represented in Table 7. As shown in Table 7, the MOB_ NBR_ADV message includes a plurality of IEs. such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted. Configuration Change Count representing the number of configurations to be changed. N NEIGHBORS representing the number of neighbor base stations, Neighbor BS-ID representing identifiers of neighbor base stations, Physical Frequency representing a physical channel frequency of the neighbor base stations, and TLV (type length variable) Encoded Neighbor Information representing variable information about the neighbor base stations. After receiving the MOB_NBR ADV message, the MSS transmits a mobile scanning interval allocation request ("MOB_SCN_RHQ") message to the serving base station if it is necessary to scan the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations. A scan request time of the MSS for scanning the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations docs not directly relate to the CINR scanning operation, so it will not be further described below. A configuration of the MOB SCN REQ message is represented in Table 8. As shown in Table 8. the MOB_ SCN_ REQ message includes a plurality of IEs, such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted, and Scan Duration representing a scan interval for scanning the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations. The scan duration is formed in a frame unit. In Table 8. the Management Message Type for the MOB SCNREQ message is not yet defined (Management Message Type = undefined). After receiving the MOB SCN REQ message, the serving base station transmits a mobile scanning interval allocation response ("MOB_ SCN RSP') message including scan information, which must be scanned by the MSS, to the MSS. A configuration of the MOB SCN RSP message is represented in Table 9. As shown in Table 9. the MOB_SCN_ RSP message includes a plurality of IEs, such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted. Connection ID ("CID") of the MSS, which has transmitted the MOBSCNREQ message and Duration. In Table 9. the Management Message Type for the MOB_SCN_ RSP message is not yet defined (Management Message Type = undefined). The Duration represents an area in which the MSS scans the CINR of the pilot channel signal. After receiving the MOB_SCN_ RSP message including the scanning information, the MSS scans the CINRs of the pilot signals of the neighbor base stations included in the MOB_ SCN_ RSP message corresponding to scanning information parameters. In order to provide the handover function in the IEEE 802.16e communication system, the MSS must measure the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations and the base station of the MSS, that is. the serving base station. If the CINR of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the serving base station is less than the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations, the MSS sends a signal requesting the handover to the serving base station. A handover process according to the request of the MSS in the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a signal flow diagram illustrating the handover process according to the request of the MSS in the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system. Referring to FIG. 6. a serving base station 610 transmits an MOB_NBR_ADV message to an MSS 600 (step 611). Upon receiving the MOB_ NBR_ ADV message from the serving base station 610, the MSS 600 obtains information related to the neighbor base stations and transmits an MOB_ SCN_ REQ message to the serving base station 610 if it is necessary to scan ("scan" and "measure" will be used synonymously with respect to determining CINRs) the CINRs of pilot channels signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations (step 613). A scan request time of the MSS 600 for scanning the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations does not directly relate to the CINR scanning operation, so it will not be further described below. The serving base station 610 receiving the MOB_ SCN _REQ message transmits an MOB_SCN_ RSP message including scanning information, which must be scanned by the MSS 600, to the MSS 600 (step 615). Upon receiving the MOB_SCN_RSP message including scanning information from the serving base station 610, the MSS 600 scans parameters included in the MOB_SCN_RSP message, that is, the MSS 600 scans the CINRs of the pilot channel signals of the neighbor base stations obtained through the MOB_ NBR_ADV message (step 617). Although a process for measuring the CINR signal of the pilot channel signal transmitted from the serving base station 610 is not separately illustrated in FIG. 6. the MSS 600 may continuously measure the CINR of the pilot channel signal transmitted from the serving base station 610. After scanning the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations, if the MSS 600 decides to change the serving base station thereof (step 619), that is, if the MSS 600 decides to replace the serving base station 610 with a new base station having a structure different from the structure of the serving base station 610, the MSS 600 transmits a mobile MSS handover request ("MOB_MSSHO_RHQ") message to the serving base station 610. Herein, a base station, which can be selected as the new base station due to the handover of the MSS 600. is called a "target BS". A configuration of the MOB_MISSIO_ REQ message is represented in Table 10. As shown in Table 10. the MOBMSSIfO REQ message includes a plurality of IEs, such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted, and a scanning result of the MSS 600. In Table 10, NRecommended represents the number of neighbor base stations, which have transmitted pilot channel signals having CINRs greater than a predetermined CINR. detected through the scanning operation of the MSS 600 for the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base station. That is. the N Recommended represents the number of neighbor base stations capable of performing the handover for the MSS 600. The MOBMSSIIO REQ message also includes identifiers of the neighbor base stations represented by the NRecommended, the CINRs of the pilot signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations, and a service level expected to be transmitted to the MSS 600. The serving base station 610 receives the MOBMSSHOREQ message transmitted from the MSS 600 and detects a list of target base stations allowing the handover of the MSS 600 based on N Recommended information of the MOBMSSHOREQ message (step 623). In the following description, the list of target base stations allowing the handover of the MSS will be referred to as a "handover-support target base station list" for the purpose of convenience. According to FIG. 6, a first target base station 620 and a second target base station 630 may exist in the handover-support target base station list. Of course, the handover-support target base station list may include a plurality of target base stations. The serving base station 610 transmits a handover notification ("IK) notification") message to the target base stations included in the handover- support target base station list, such as the first target base station 620 and the second target base station 630 (steps 625 and 627). A configuration of the I K) notification message is represented in fable 11. Table 11 As shown in Table 11, the HO notification message includes a plurality of Il-s. such as an ID of the MSS 600 to be handed-over to the first target base station 620 or the second target base station 630. an expected handover start time of the MSS 600, a bandwidth provided from the target base station, that is. a bandwidth provided from a new serving base station according to a request of the MSS 600, and a service level provided to the MSS 600. The bandwidth and the service level requested by the MSS 600 arc identical to the expected service level information recorded in the MOB MSSHOREQ message described with reference to I;l(i. 10. The first and second target base stations 620 and 630 receive the HO notification message from the serving base station 610 and transmit an HOnotificalion response message to the serving base station 610 (steps 629 and 631). A configuration of the HO notification response message is represented in Table 12. Table 12 As shown in Table 12, the HO notification response message includes a plurality of IF-s, such as an ID of the MSS 600 to be handed-over to the target base stations, ACK/NACK representing a response of the target base stations with regard to a handover request of the MSS 600, and information related to the bandwidth and the service level which must be provided from each target base station when the MSS 600 is handed-ovcr to the target base station. The serving base station 610 receives the MO notification response message from the first and second target base stations 620 and 630 and analyzes the H()_notification response message in order to select a final base station capable of providing an optical bandwidth and an optical service level to the MSS 600 when the MSS 600 is handed-over to the base station. For instance, if the service level provided from the first target base station 620 is less than the service level requested by the MSS 600 and the service level provided from the second target base station 630 is identical to the sen ice level requested by the MSS 600, the serving base station 610 selects the second target base station 630 as the final target base station performing a handover operation in relation to the MSS 600. Thus, the serving base station 610 transmits an HOnotification conform message to the second target base station 630 in response to the HOnotification response message (step 633). A configuration of the HO notification confirm message is represented in Table 13. Table 13 As shown in fable 13, the HOnotification confirm message includes a plurality of IHs. such as an ID of the MSS 600 to be handed-over to the selected target base station, and information about a bandwidth and a service level which must be provided from the selected target base station when the MSS 600 is handed-over to the selected target base station. In addition, the serving base station 610 transmits a mobile handover response ("MOB_HO_RSP") message to the MSS 600 in response to the MOB_MSSHO_REQ message (step 635). The MOB_HO__RSP message includes information about the target base station performing the handover operation in relation to the MSS 600. A configuration of the MOB HO RSP message is represented in Table 14. Table 14 As shown in Table 14. the MOB HORSP message includes a plurality of Uis, such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted, an expected handover start time, and target ser\ing stations selected from the serving base stations. In addition. N Recommended of the MOB IK) RSP message represents the number of target base stations capable of providing the bandwidth and service level requested b> the MSS 600 among target base stations included in the handover-support target base station list. The MOBHORSP message is marked with the identifiers of the target base stations represented by the N_Recommcndcd and a service level expected to be provided to the MSS 600 from the target base station. Although FIG. 6 illustrates that the information of one target base station, that is, information about the second target base station 630, is only included in the MOB_HO_ RSP message from among the target base stations included in the handover-support target base station list, if there arc a plurality of target base stations capable of providing the bandwidth and service level requested by the MSS in the handover-support target base station list, the MOB_HO_ RSP message may include information related to the plurality of target base stations. Upon receiving the MOB_HO_ RSP message, the MSS 600 analyzes information included in the MOB_HO_ RSP message in order to select a target base station for performing the handover operation in relation to the MSS 600. After selecting the target base station, the MSS 600 transmits a mobile handover indication ("MOB_HO_ IND") message to the serving base station 610 in response to the MOBHO RSP message (step 637). A configuration of the MOB_HO_IND message is represented in Table 15. Table 15 As shown in Table 15. the MOBHO IND message includes a plurality of IEs, such as Management Message Type representing a message type to be transmitted, an identifier of a final target base station selected by the MSS 600, and TLV Encoded Information representing variable Encoded information. The serving base station 610 receiving the MOB 110 IND message recogni/es that the MSS 600 will be handed-over to the target base station, that is, the second target base station 630 based on the MOB _HO IND message so that the serving base station 610 releases a link connecting the serving base station 610 to the MSS 600 (step 639). If the link connecting the MSS 600 to the serving base station 610 has been released, the MSS 600 is handed-over to the second target base station 630. The handover process according to the request of the base station in the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a signal flow diagram showing the handover process according to the request of the base station in the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system. It is noted that the handover process according to the request of the base station may occur when an overload is applied to the base station so that it is necessary to distribute the load of the base station to neighbor base stations or when it is necessary to deal with the status variation of the uplink of the MSS. Referring to FIG. 7. a serving base station 710 transmits an MOBNBR ADV message to an MSS 700 (step 711). Upon receiving the MOB_NBR_ADV message from the serving base station 710, the MSS 700 obtains information relating to the neighbor base stations and transmits an MOBSCN RHQ message to the serving base station 710 if it is necessary to scan the CINRs of pilot channels signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations (step 713). A scan request time of the MSS 700 for scanning the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations does not directly relate to the CINR scanning operation, so it will not be further described below. The serving base station 710 receiving the MOB SCN REQ message transmits an MOB_SCN RSP message including the scanning information, which must be scanned by the MSS 700, to the MSS 700 (step 715). Upon receiving the MOB SCN RSP message including the scanning information from the serving base station 710. the MSS 700 scans the parameters included in the MOB SCN RSP message, that is, the MSS 700 scans the CINRs of the pilot channel signals of the neighbor base stations obtained through the MOBNBR ADV message (step 717). Although a process for measuring the CINR signal of the pilot channel signal transmitted from the serving base station 710 is not separately illustrated in FIG. 7, the MSS 700 may continuously measure the CINR of the pilot channel signal transmitted from the serving base station 710. When the serving base station 710 determines that it is necessary to perform the handover of the MSS 700 managed by the serving base station 710 (step 719), the serving base station 710 transmits an HO_notification message to the neighbor base stations (steps 721 and 723). Herein, the HO_notification message includes information relating to a bandwidth and a service level which must be provided from a target base station, that is, a new serving base station of the MSS 700. In FIG. 7, the neighbor base stations of the serving base station 710 are first and second target base stations 720 and 730. Upon receiving the HOnotification message, the first and second target base stations 720 and 730 transmit the HOnotification response message to the serving base station 710 in response to the IlO_notification message (step 725 and 727). As described with reference to Table 12, the HOnotification response message includes ACK/NACK representing a response of the target base stations, that is, a response of the neighbor base stations with regard to the handover requested by the serving base station 710, and information about a bandwidth and a sen ice level of the target base stations, which must be provided to the MSS 700. The serving base station 710 receives the HOnotification response message from the first and second target base stations 720 and 730 and selects the target base stations capable of providing an optimal bandwidth and an optimal service level to the MSS 700. For instance, if the service level provided from the first target base station 720 is less than the service level requested by the MSS 700 and the service level provided from the second target base station 730 is identical to the service level requested by the MSS 700, the serving base station 710 selects the second target base station 730 as a final target base station performing a handover operation in relation to the MSS 700. Thus, the serving base station 710 selecting the second target base station 730 as a final target base station transmits an HO notification conform message to the second target base station 730 in response to the HO notification response message (step 729). The serving base station 710 transmits the MOB HO RSP message to the MSS 700 (step 731) after transmitting the HO_notificalion conform message to the second target base station 730. The MOB IIO RSP message includes NRecommended information selected by the serving base station 710. that is. information related to the bandwidth and the service level which must be provided to the MSS 700 from the selected target base stations (the second target base station 730 in FIG. 7) and target base stations. Upon receiving the MOB_HO_ RSP message, the MSS 700 recognizes that the handover is requested by the serving base station 710 so that the MSS 700 selects the final target base station performing the handover operation in relation to the MSS 700 based on N_Recommended information included in the MOB_ HO_ RSP message. After that, the MSS 700 transmits the MOB_HO_ IND message to the serving station 710 in response to the MOB_HO_RSP message (step 733). As the MOB_HO_ IND message is received in the serving base station 710, the serving base station 710 recognizes that the MSS 700 will be handed-over to the target base station based on the MOB_HO_ IND message so that the serving base station 710 releases a link connecting the serving base station to the MSS 700 (step 735). If the link connecting the MSS 700 to the serving base station 710 has been released, the MSS 700 is handed-over to the second target base station 730. As described above, according to the conventional IEEE- 802.16e communication system, the MSS is handed-over to the neighbor base station. The MSS is handed-over to the target base station, which is different from the serving base station, when the CINR of the pilot cannel signal of the serving base station becomes reduced so that it is impossible for the MSS to properh communicate with the serving base station, or when the handover is requested by the MSS or the serving base station. However, if an MSS drop occurs during the handover operation in the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands in a similar way as to the operation of the MSS after the MSS is powered on in order to detect a pilot channel signal having the highest CINR and selects the base station, which has transmitted the pilot channel signal having the highest CINR, as a base station for the MSS. In addition, if an MSS drop occurs while the MSS is communicating with the serving base station in the conventional IEEE 802.16e communication system, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands in the same manner as the MSS drop so as to detect a pilot channel signal having the highest CINR and selects the base station, which has transmitted the pilot channel signal having the highest CINR, as a base station for the MSS. According to the above two cases, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands although the MSS is communicating with the serving base station, requiring a relatively long period of time for selecting the serving base station, thereby lowering sen ice quality. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an improved procedure capable of allowing the MSS subject to the drop during a communication to resume communication with a minimum time delay. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve at least the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a system and a method for selecting a serving base station for an MSS when the MSS is subject to a drop during a communication in a broadband wireless communication system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, representative embodiments of the present invention will be described. In addition, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may obscure the subject matter of the present invention. The present invention provides a method for selecting a serving base station when an mobile subscriber station("MSS") is subject to a drop during a communication in an IEEE(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) 802.16e communication system, a broadband wireless access communication system. In the following description, the expression "an MSS is subject to a drop" and "a drop occurs in an MSS" are used to describe a call drop. According to the present invention, the MSS may instantly select a serving base station(BS) when the MSS is subject to the drop during a communication, so that the MSS can reestablish the communication with regard to the serving base station within a short period of time. In addition, the present invention provides a method for assigning a ranging code, that is, a drop ranging code in order to minimize the time required for network re-entry of the MSS when the MSS is subject to the drop in the IEEE 802.16e communication system. The IEEE 802.16e communication system is a broadband wireless access communication system utilizing an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing ("OFDM") scheme and an orthogonal frequency division multiple access ("OFDMA") scheme. Since the IEEE 802.16e communication system uses the OFDM/OFDMA schemes, the physical channel signals can be transmitted through a plurality of sub-carriers so that a high-speed data transmission is possible. In short, the IEEE 802.16e communication system is a broadband wireless access communication system capable of providing for the mobility of the MSS by using a multi-cell structure. The drop signifies that the MSS is disconnected from the serving base station during a communication. The drop is a release of" a link connecting the MSS to the serving base station, that is, a call release. The present invention has been made under the assumption that the drop occurs in the MSS after the MSS has received a mobile neighbor advertisement ("MOB_ NBR _ADV") message. If the drop occurs in the MSS, a periodic ranging cannot be normally carried out between the MSS and the serving base station. As described above in relation to the prior art, the periodic ranging is periodically carried out by means of the MSS having a time offset and its transmit power adjusted through an initial ranging, in such a manner that the MSS can adjust a channel status with respect to the base station. A process for detecting a drop by means of an MSS using a periodic ranging procedure will be described with reference to FIG. 8. FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating the process for detecting the drop by means of the MSS using the periodic ranging procedure in an IEEE 802.16c communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 8, the MSS that obtains an initial synchronization with respect to the serving base station transmits a ranging request ("RNG_ REQ") message to the serving base station (step 801). A configuration of the RNG_ REQ message is identical to the configuration of the RNG_ REQ message, which has been described with reference to Table 5. so it will not be further described below. In step 803, the MSS waits for a ranging response ("RNG_ REQ") message, which is a response message to the "RNG_ REQ" message. A configuration of the RNG_RSP message is identical to the configuration of the RNG_ RSP message, which has been described with reference to Table 6, so it will not be further described below. In step 805. the MSS determines whether or not the RNGRSP message is transmitted thereto from the serving base station. If the RNGRSP message is transmitted to the MSS from the serving base station, the procedure goes to step 807. In step 807. since the ranging process has been completed, the MSS is normally operated. If the RNGRSP message has not been transmitted to the MSS from the serving base station in step 805, the procedure goes to step 809. In step 809, the MSS determines whether or not the number of transmission times of the RNG_REQ message exceeds the number of times for the RNG_ REQ RETRIES (""RNG_ REQ RETRIES"). Herein, the number of times for the RNG REQ RETRIES represents the maximum number of transmission times of the "RNG_ REQ" message by means of the MSS in a state in which the MSS does not receive the RNG_RSP message from the base station. If it is determined that the number of transmission times of the RNG_ REQ message does not exceed the number of times for the "RNG_ REQ RETRIES in step 809, the procedure returns to step 801. If it is determined that the number of transmission times of the RNG_REQ message exceeds the number of times for the RNG_REQ RETRIES in step 809, the procedure goes to step 811. In step 811, the MSS detects the drop occurring in the MSS.. A process for detecting a drop by means of a serving base station using a periodic ranging procedure will be described with reference to FIG. 9. FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating the process for detecting the drop by means of the serving base station using the periodic ranging procedure in an IEEE 802.16c communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 9, the serving base station that obtains an initial synchronization with respect to the MSS waits for RNG_ REQ message transmitted from the MSS (step 901). In step 903, the serving base station determines whether or not the RNG REQ message is transmitted thereto from the MSS. If the RNG_ REQ message is transmitted to the serving base station from the MSS. the procedure goes to step 905. In step 905, the serving base station transmits the RNGRSP message to the MSS in response to the RNG REQ message. If the RNG_RFQ message has not been transmitted to the serving base station from the MSS in step 903. the procedure goes to step 907. In step 907, the serving base station determines whether or not the number of transmission times of the RNG REQ message exceeds the number of times for the RNG REQ RHTRIES. Herein, the serving base station may increase the number of transmission times for the RNGREQ message by 1 if the serving base station does not receive the RNG REQ message within a predetermined time (RNG REQTimeout). If it is determined that the number of transmission times of the RNGREQ message docs not exceed the number of times for the RNGREQ RETRIES in step 907, the procedure returns to step 901. If it is determined that the number of transmission times of the RNGREQ message exceeds the number of times for the RNG REQ RETRIES in step 907, the procedure goes to step 909. In step 909. the serving base station detects the drop occurring in the MSS. Accordingly, in the same manner as the normal handover procedure, the serving base station releases a link, that is, releases a call with regard to the MSS which is subject to the drop. A process for detecting a drop by using a downlink status will be described with reference to FIG. 10. FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating the process for detecting the drop by means of an MSS using the downlink status in an IEEE 802.16c communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 10, the MSS initializes a value of CONSECUTIVE BAD FRAME, which is a parameter for counting the number of frames having inferior quality ("bad frame"). as "0" (CONSECUTIVEBAD 1-RAME - 0) (step 1001). The bad frame signifies a frame having inferior qualil>, which cannot be used for data communication even if errors created in the frame have been corrected. In step 1003, the MSS remains in a waiting state. In step 1005, the MSS receives the downlink frame. In step 1007, the MSS performs a evelie redundancy check (CRC) with respect to the received downlink frame. In step 1009. the MSS determines whether or not an error occurs in the downlink frame. If it is determined that the error is not generated from ihe downlink frame in step 1009, the procedure returns to step 1001. If it is determined that the error is generated from the downlink frame in slep 1009, the procedure goes to step 1011. In step 1011, the MSS determines that the received downlink frame is a bad frame, so the MSS increase the value of the CONSECUTIVE_BAD_FRAME by 1 (CONSECUTIVE. BAD_FRAME = CONSECUTIVE .BAD_FRAME - I). In step 1013. the MSS determines whether or not the value of the CONSECUTIVE BADFRAMF. exceeds a predetermined limit number of bad frames ("LIMITBADFRAME'")- If it is determined that the value of the CONSECUTIVE_BAD_FRAME does not exceed the LIMIT_BAD_FRAME in step 1013, the procedure returns to step 1003. If it is determined that the value of the CONSECUTIVE_BAD_FRAME exceeds the LIMIT_BAD_ FRAME in step 1013, the procedure goes to step 1015. In step 1015, the MSS detects the drop occurring the MSS. As described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 10, since the link connecting the MSS to the serving base station may be released if the MSS is subject to the drop, the MSS must search the serving base stations in order to reestablish a communication with regard to a new serving base station. According to the prior art, the MSS detecting the drop must monitor all of the frequency bands in the similar way as to the operation of the MSS after the MSS is powered on in order to detect a reference channel, that is. a pilot channel signal having a highest CINR and selects the base station, which has transmitted the pilot channel signal having the highest CINR. as a target base station for the MSS. The MSS also receives a preamble of the downlink frame transmitted from the target base station and obtains a system synchronization with respect to the target base station, thereby selecting the target base station as a new serving base station. A new serving base station different from the present serving base station of the MSS. that is, a serving station capable of performing the handover operation with regard to the MSS, becomes the target station. According to the present invention, the drop may occur in the MSS during a communication after the MSS has received the MOB_ NBR_ ADV message, so it is not necessary to carry out the step of monitor all of the frequency bands preset in the MSS in the similar way as the operation of the MSS after the MSS is powered in order to detect the pilot channel signal having a highest CINR for selecting the serving base station based on the pilot channel signal. According to the present invention, the new serving base station is selected from among target base stations capable of serving as a new serving base station when the drop occurs in the MSS. therebv minimizing a communication delay. According to the present invention, the MSS which is subject to the drop during communication after receiving the MOB_NBR_ADV message may select the serving base station in a different way as compared with the MSS which is subject to the drop during the handover operation. For this reason, a procedure of the MSS for selecting the serving base station will be described below by considering the two cases of the MSS, that is, a non-handover state of the MSS and a handover state of the MSS. FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure for selecting a serving base station when a drop occurs during a non-handover state of an MSS in an IEEE 802.16e communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 11, the MSS detects the drop occurring in the MSS in step 1101. In step 1103, the MSS detects information related to neighbor base stations included in the MOB_ NBR_ ADV message, which has been transmitted to the MSS from the serving base station before the drop occurs in the MSS, and sets a parameter i. used for monitoring the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations, to "0" (i = 0). A configuration of the MOB NBR ADV message is identical to the configuration of the MOB_NBR_ADV message, which has been described with reference to fable 7, and the information relating to the neighbor base stations includes the number of the neighbor base stations, identifiers of the neighbor base stations, and a physical channel frequency. In addition, the parameter i represents the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring. In step 1105, the MSS sequentially selects the information about the neighbor base stations one by one (i :~ i 1) in order to monitor the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations. In step 1107. the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations. As mentioned above, the target base station signifies a base station capable of serving as a new serving base station of the MSS. For instance, a base station providing a pilot channel signal having a CINR higher than a predetermined CINR can be selected as a target base station. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1107, the procedure goes to step 1111. In step 1111, the MSS determines whether or not the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the number of neighbor base stations (N_NFIGHBORS) included in the MOB_ NBR_ADV message. If it is determined that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the N_ NEIGHBORS in step 1111, the procedure returns to step 1105. If it is determined that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is not less than the N_NEIGHBORS in step 1111. the procedure goes to step 1113. In step 1113, since the MSS fails to select the target base station from among the neighbor base stations, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands preset in the MSS. In step 1115, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected in step 1115, the procedure returns to step 1113. If it is determined that the target base station is delected in step 1115. the procedure goes to step 1109. If it is determined that the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1107, the procedure goes to step 1109. In step 1109, the MSS selects one target base station from among the detected target base stations as a new serving base station for the MSS. If a plurality of target base stations are detected through step 1107. the MSS selects one target base station as a new serving base station for the MSS based on the value of the CINR. A procedure for selecting a serving base station when a drop occurs in an MSS after the MSS has transmitted an MOB_MSSHO_REQ message while a handover operation is being carried out at the request of the MSS in an IEEE 802.16e communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 12. FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating the procedure for selecting the serving base station when the drop occurs in the MSS after an MSS has transmitted an MOB_ MSSHO_REQ message while the handover operation is being carried out at the request of the MSS in an IEEE 802.16e communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 12. the MSS detects the drop occurring in the MSS in step 1201. In step 1203. the MSS detects information related to neighbor base stations included in the MOB_ MSSHO_REQ message, which has been transmitted to the serving base station before the drop occurs in the MSS. Information related to the neighbor base stations included in the MOB_ MSSHO_REQ message is information relating to N_RECOMMENDED, which represents the number of base stations transmitting to the MSS the pilot channel signal having a C1NR greater than a predetermined CINR, obtained by scanning the CINRs of the pilot channel signals transmitted from N_NEIGHBORS included in the MOB_NBR_ADV message. That is. the information relating to the neighbor base stations included in the MOB_ MSSHO_REQ message is information relating to the neighbor base stations capable of serving as a target base station for the MSS, which are selected from among N_NEIGHBORS included in the MOB_NBR_ ADV message. In step 1205, the MSS sequentially orders the detected neighbor base stations according to the value of the CINR and sets a parameter i, used for monitoring the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations, to "0" (i = 0). The parameter i represents the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring. In step 1207, the MSS sequentially selects the information related to the neighbor base stations one by one (i - i +l) in the order of the CINR value of the neighbor base stations in order to monitor the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations. In step 1209, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations. The target base station is a base station capable of serving as a new serving base station of the MSS. For instance, a base station providing a pilot channel signal having a CINR greater than a predetermined CINR can be selected as a target base station. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1209, the procedure goes to step 1213. In step 1213, the MSS determines whether or not the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the number of neighbor base stations (N_RECOMMENDED) included in the MOB_MSSHO_REQ message. If it is determined that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the N_ RECOMMENDED included in the MOB_ MSSHO_ REQ message in step 1213, the procedure returns to step 1207. If it is determined in step 1213 that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring exceeds the N_ RECOMMENDED, the procedure goes to step 1215. In step 1215, since the MSS fails to select the target base station from among the neighbor base stations, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands preset in the MSS In step 1217. the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected in step 1217. the procedure returns to step 1215. If it is determined that the target base station is detected in step 1217, the procedure goes to step 1211. If it is determined that the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1209, the procedure goes to step 1211. In step 1211, the MSS selects one target base station from among the delected target base stations as a new serving base station for the MSS. If a plurality of target base stations are detected through step 1209. the MSS selects one target base station as a new serving base station for the MSS based on the value of the CINR. FIG. 13 is a flowchart illustrating the procedure for selecting the serving base station when the drop occurs in the MSS before the MSS has received the MOB HO RSP message while the handover operation is being carried out at the request of the serving base station in an IEEE 802.16e communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Prior to explaining FIG. 13, it should be noted that if the drop occurs in the MSS before the MSS has received the MOB_ HO_ RSP message while the handover operation is being carried out at the request of the serving base station, it may be equal to a case in which the drop occurs in the MSS after the MSS, receiving a mobile scanning interval allocation response ("MOB_ SCN_ RSP") message during the non-handover of the MSS, has scanned the CINRs of pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations. Therefore, although FIG. 13 shows the procedure for selecting the serving base station when the drop occurs in the MSS before the MSS has received the MOB_HO_ RSP message, if the drop occurs in the MSS before the MSS has received the MOB_ HO_ RSP message while the handover operation is being carried out at the request of the serving base station, it may be equal to a case in which the drop occurs in the MSS after the MSS receiving the MOB_SCN_ RSP message during the non- handover of the MSS has scanned the CINRs of pilot channel signals transmitted from the neighbor base stations. Referring to FIG. 13, the MSS detects the drop occurring in the MSS in step 1301. In step 1303, the MSS detects information related to the neighbor base stations included in the MOB_NBR _ADV message, which has been transmitted to the MSS from the serving base station before the drop occurs in the MSS. In. step 1305. the MSS sequentially orders the detected neighbor base stations in the order of the value of the CINR and sets a parameter i, used for monitoring the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations, to "0" (i = 0). The parameter i represents the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring. In step 1307. the MSS sequentially selects the information related to the neighbor base stations one by one (i = i -l) in the order of the CINR value of the neighbor base stations in order to monitor the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations. In step 1309, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1309, the procedure goes to step 1313. In step 1313, the MSS determines whether or not the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the number of neighbor base stations (N_ NEIGHBORS) included in the MOB_NBR_ ADV message. If it is determined that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the N_NLIGHBORS included in the MOB_ NBR_ADV message in step 1313. the procedure returns to step 1307. If it is determined in step 1313 that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring exceeds the N_ NEIGHBORS included in the MOB_ NBR_ ADV message, the procedure goes to step 1315. In step 1315, since the MSS fails to select the target base station from among the neighbor base stations, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands preset in the MSS. In step 1317, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected in step 1317, the procedure returns to step 1315. In addition, if it is determined that the target base station is detected in step 1317, the procedure goes to step 1311. If it is determined that the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1309. the procedure goes to step 1311. In step 1311, the MSS selects one target base station from among the detected target base stations as a new serving base station for the MSS. If a plurality of target base stations are detected through step 1317, the MSS selects one target base station as a new serving base station for the MSS based on the value of the CINR. FIG. 14 is a flowchart illustrating the procedure for selecting the serving base station when the drop occurs in the MSS after the MSS has received an MOB_HO_RSP message during the handover operation in an IEEE 802.16e communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Prior to explaining FIG. 14, it should be noted that the MOB_ HO_RSP message is transmitted from the MSS to the serving base station during the handover operation carried out at the request of the MSS or the serving base station and the handover operation performed at the request of the MSS must be differentiated from the handover operation performed at the request of the serving base station in the method for selecting the serving base station shown in FIG. 14. Referring to FIG. 14. the MSS detects the drop occurring in the MSS in step 1401. In step 1403, the MSS detects information related to the neighbor base stations included in the MOB_HO RSP message, which has been transmitted to the MSS from the serving base station before the drop occurs in the MSS. As described with reference to 'fable 14, the information related to the neighbor base stations included in the MOBUO RSP message represents information related to the N RECOMMENDED target base stations, which are selected from handover- support target base stations and capable of providing the bandwidth and service level requested by the MSS. In step 1405, the MSS sequentially orders the detected neighbor base stations in the order of the service level and sets a parameter i, used for monitoring frequency bands of the neighbor base stations, to "0" (i - 0). Then, the procedure goes to step 1407. The parameter i represents the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring. In step 1407, the MSS sequentially selects the neighbor base stations one by one (i =- i - l) in the order of the service level provided from the neighbor base stations so as to monitor the frequency bands of the neighbor base stations. In step 1409, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1409, the procedure goes to step 1413. In step 1413, the MSS determines whether or not the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the number of neighbor base stations (N_RECOMMENDF.D) included in the MOB_HO_RSP message. If it is determined that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring is less than the N_ RECOMMENDED included in the MOB HO RSP message in step 1413, the procedure returns to step 1407. If it is determined in step 1413 that the parameter i representing the number of neighbor base stations subject to the frequency band monitoring exceeds the NRECOMMENDED included in the MOBHO RSP message, the procedure goes to step 1415. In step 1415. since the MSS fails to detect the target base station from among the neighbor base stations, the MSS monitors all of the frequency bands preset in the MSS. In step 1417, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station is detected. If it is determined that the target base station is not detected in step 1417, the procedure returns to step 1415. If it is determined that the target base station is detected in step 1417, the procedure goes to step 1411. If it is determined that the target base station is detected through the frequency band monitoring for the neighbor base stations in step 1409, the procedure goes to step 1411. In step 1411. the MSS selects one target base station from among the detected target base stations as a nev\ serving base station for the MSS. If a plurality of target base stations are detected through step 1417, the MSS selects one target base station as a new serving base station for the MSS based on the value of the CINR, etc. FIG. 15 is a flowchart illustrating the procedure for selecting the serving base station when the drop occurs in the MSS after the MSS has transmitted the MOB HOIND message during the handover operation in the IEEE 802.16c communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Prior to explaining FIG. 15, it should be noted that the MOB_ IIO_ INI) message is transmitted from the MSS to the serving base station during the handover operation carried out at the request of the MSS or the serving base station and the handover operation performed at the request of the MSS must be differentiated from the handover operation performed at the request of the serving base station in the method for selecting the serving base station shown in FIG. 14. Referring to FIG. 15. the MSS detects the drop occurring in the MSS in step 1501. In step 1503, the MSS detects related to the neighbor base stations included in the MOB_HO_ IND message, which has been transmitted to the serving base station before the drop occurs in the MSS. The MOB_HO_IND message includes information related to the final target base station of the MSS. A configuration of the MOB_HO_IND message is identical to the configuration of the MOB_HO_IND message described with reference to Table 15. so it will not be further described below. In step 1505, the MSS monitors the frequency band of the target base station detected from the MOB_HO_IND message. Then, the procedure goes to step 1507. In step 1507, the MSS determines whether or not the target base station detected from the MOB_HO_IND message is detected as a target base station of the MSS. If it is determined that the target base station detected from the MOB_HO_IND message is not detected as a target base station of the MSS in step 1507, the procedure goes to step 1403 shown in FIG 14. In addition, if it is determined that the target base station detected from the MOB_HO_IND message is not detected as a target base station of the MSS in step 1507, the procedure goes to step 1509. Tn step 1509, the MSS selects the detected target base station as a new serving base station for the MSS.A ranging procedure of an MSS by using a drop ranging code for allowing the MSS to reestablish communication within a short period of time when the drop occurs in the MSS in an IEEE 802.16e communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 16. FIG. 16 is a signal How diagram illustrating the ranging procedure of the MSS by using a drop ranging code when the drop occurs in the MSS in the IEEE 802.16e communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Prior to explaining FIG. 16, the rangings used for the IEEE: 802.16e communication system are classified into an initial ranging, a maintenance ranging, that is. a periodic ranging, and a bandwidth request ranging in the same manner as the rangings used for the IEEE 802.16a communication system. The initial ranging, the periodic ranging, and the bandwidth request ranging used for the IEEE 802.16e communication system are identical to those of the IEEE 802.16a communication system, so they will not be further described below. As described above with regard to the prior art, the base station must assign the available ranging codes according to the objects of the rangings, that is, according to the type of the rangings. In the IEEE 802.16e communication system, the ranging codes are created by segmenting a pseudo-random noise ("PN'") sequence having a predetermined bit length (for example. 215-1 bits) into predetermined ranging code units. For instance, a maximum of Q ranging codes (RC #1 to RC #Q) can be created. In the current IEEE 802.16e communication system, the Q ranging codes are differently assigned according to the objects of the rangings, that is according to the initial ranging, the periodic ranging and the bandwidth request ranging. For instance, N ranging codes are assigned for the initial ranging. M ranging codes arc assigned for the periodic ranging, and L ranging codes are assigned for the bandwidth request ranging. The total number (Q) of the ranging codes is equal to the sum of the N ranging codes for the initial ranging, the M ranging codes for the periodic ranging and the L ranging codes for the bandwidth request ranging (Q = N + M + L). However, according to the present invention, the Q ranging codes are differently assigned for the purpose of four rangings, that is, the initial ranging, the periodic ranging, the bandwidth request ranging and the drop ranging. For instance, A ranging codes are assigned for the initial ranging, B ranging codes arc assigned for the periodic ranging, C ranging codes are assigned for the bandwidth request ranging, and D ranging codes are assigned for the drop ranging. Herein, the total number (Q) of the ranging codes is equal to the sum of the A ranging codes for the initial ranging, the B ranging codes for the periodic ranging, the C ranging codes for the bandwidth request ranging, and the D ranging codes for the drop ranging (Q = A - B - C + D). In addition, the drop ranging suggested by the present invention signifies a ranging carried out for primarily reestablishing a communication when the drop occurs during communication. An operation of the drop ranging is actually similar to that of the initial ranging. When the MSS having the drop performs the drop ranging by using drop ranging codes, the base station determines that the MSS tries to reestablish the communication with regard to the base station after the drop occurs in the MSS, so the base station primarily reestablishes the communication with respect to the MSS. Referring to FIG. 16, when an initial synchronization is achieved between an MSS 1600 and a serving base station 1610 (step 1611), the MSS 1600 receives a Dl. MAP message, an UL MAP message, a DCD message, and an UCD message from the serving base station 1610 (step 1613). As described above, in one embodiment of the present invention, the UL MAP message includes an information of drop ranging codes. The servjng base station 1610 is a new serving base station selected by the MSS 1600 after the drop occurs in the MSS 1600. The MSS 1600 transmits the drop ranging code to the serving base station 1610 (step 1615) in such a manner that the serving base station 1610 can recognize that the MSS 1600 is attempting to reestablish a communication after the drop occurs in the MSS 1600. Upon receiving the drop ranging code from the MSS 1600, the serving base station 1610 may recognize that the MSS 1600 is attempting to reestablish the communication with regard to the serving base station 1610 after the drop, so the serving base station 1610 transmits the DL_ MAP message, the UL_MAP message, the DCD message, and the UCD message to the MSS 1600 (step 1617). The UL_ MAP message transmitted to the MSS 1600 in step 1617 may include information related to the time slot assignment for allowing the MSS 1600 to transmit the RNG REQ message through a time slot. The MSS 1600 transmits the RNG REQ message including coded information and information related to a former serving base station, which communicates with the MSS 1600 before MSS 1600 has been subject to the drop, to the serving base station 1610 through a time slot corresponding to the time slot assignment information included in the UL_MAP message in order to reestablish the communication with respect to the serving base station 1610 (step 1619). The serving base station 1610 then transmits the RNG RSP message to the MSS 1600 in response to the RNG_ REQ message (step 1621). Since the MSS 1600 is an MSS for reestablishing communication with regard to the serving base station 1610 after the drop, the serving base station primarily assigns resources to the MSS 1600 in such a manner that the MSS 1600 can perform the network-entry procedure in a contention-free manner. The network-entry procedure of the MSS 1600 includes registration and authentication between the MSS 1600 and the serving base station. Upon receiving the RNGRSP message from the serving base station 1610, the MSS 1600 performs the nelwork-entry procedure in relation to the serving base station 1610 (step 1623). A drop ranging procedure of an MSS by using a drop ranging lime slot for allowing the MSS to reestablish communication within a short period of lime when the drop occurs in the MSS in an IEEE 802.16e communication system will be described with reference to FIG. 17. FIG. 17 is a signal flow diagram illustrating the drop ranging procedure of the MSS. which is subject to the drop, by using the drop ranging time slot in the IEEE 802.16e communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 17. when an initial synchronization is achieved between an MSS 1700 and a serving base station 1710 (step 1711), the MSS 1700 receives a DLMAP message, an UL_MAP message, a DCD message, and an UCD message from the serving base station 1710 (step 1713). As described above, in one embodiment of the present invention, the UL_MAP message includes an information of drop ranging time slots. The serving base station 1710 is a new serving base station selected by the MSS 1700 after the drop occurs in the MSS 1700. The UL_MAP message may include information related to a drop ranging offset, that is, information related to a drop ranging time slot. A drop ranging information element (Drop_Ranging IF.) of the ULMAP message according to the present invention is represented in Table 16. Table 16 In addition, the MSS 1700 transmits the RNG_ REQ message to the serving base station 1710 using the drop ranging time slot (step 1715) in such a manner that the serving base station 1710 can recognize that the MSS 1700 is attempting to reestablish the communication with regard to the serving base station 1710 after the drop occurs in the MSS 1700. Upon receiving the RNG_ REQ message from the MSS 1700, the serving base station 1710 may recognize that the MSS 1700 is attempting to reestablish the communication after the drop, so the serving base station 1710 transmits the RNG_ RSP message to the MSS 1700 in response to the RNG_ REQ message (step 1717). Since the MSS 1700 is an MSS for reestablishing communication with regard to the serving base station 1710 after the drop, the serving base station 1710 primarily assigns resources to the MSS 1700 in such a manner that the MSS 1700 can perform the network-entry procedure in a contention-free manner. Upon receiving the RNG RSP message from the serving base station 1710, the MSS 1700 performs the network-entry procedure in relation to the serving base station 1710 (step 1719). As described above, according to the present invention, the number of target base stations, which must be monitored for allowing the MSS to reestablish a communication with regard to the target base station when the MSS is subject to the drop while making communication with the serving base station, can be reduced so that the MSS can reestablish the communication with regard to the target base station within a short period of time in a broadband wireless access communication system using the OFDM /OFDMA schemes, such as the IEEE 802.16e communication system. In addition, v\hen the MSS reestablishes the communication with regard to the serving base station in the IEEE 802.16e communication system, the MSS notifies the new serving base station of the reestablishment of the communication by using the drop ranging codes. Thus, the new serving base station may primarily assign resources to the MSS such that the MSS can reestablish communication with regard to the new serving base station within a short period of time, thereby improving service quality of the IEEE 802.16e communication system. While the invention has been shown and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
