Abstract
An apparatus and method for providing neighbor node information in a cellular communication system. In the method, a Base Station (BS) generates and transmits a neighbor advertisement message including neighbor base station BS information and neighbor Relay Station (RS) information. A node discriminatively processes the neighbor BS information and the neighbor RS information that are included in the neighbor advertisement message received from the BS. Therefore, when the neighbor advertisement message including the neighbor BS information and the neighbor RS information is broadcast, each node can extract and process necessary neighbor node information efficiently.
