1. A distributed network backhaul delay system, comprising:
- a plurality of cellular base transceiver stations; and
a plurality of network backhaul delay elements, each of the plurality of network backhaul delay elements being located at a central office, wherein each of the plurality of network backhaul delay elements is associated with a different one of the plurality of cellular base transceiver stations, wherein each network backhaul delay element is configured to adjust and shape relative network delays to minimize network delays between cell sites to enable soft handoff to be performed, said each network backhaul delay element shaping the delays such that the largest delays correspond to the most interior areas of cellular coverage of the cell sites.

Abstract
A distributed or centralized network backhaul delay system includes a plurality of cellular base transceiver stations. Each cellular base transceiver station includes a network backhaul delay element. The network backhaul delay element is configured to calculate delay information associated with network delays between cell sites. The network backhaul delay element is configured to adjust and shape the relative network delays to minimize network delays between cell sites to enable soft handoff to be performed.
