Soft handoff is provided in a mobile-to-mobile call in a cellular communication system, wherein a first mobile is moving from a first cell to a second cell, and the second mobile is in a third cell. The first mobile requests a handoff from the first cell to the second cell. In response, information regarding the call handoff is sent to the second and third cells. During handoff, the first and second cells receive radio transmission from the first mobile, and they both translate the transmissions into electronic data, packetize the data, and send the packetized data to the third cell. The third cell sends packetized data from the second mobile to both the first and second cells. Further, the second mobile may also move from the third cell to a fourth cell. The second mobile requests a handoff from the third cell to the fourth cell. Call data is sent to the fourth cell identifying the first and second cells. Call data is sent to the first and second cells identifying the fourth cell. The first and second cells thereafter transmit packetized data to the third and fourth cells, and the third and fourth cells send packetized data to the first and second cells.
