<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/>A method and apparatus for determining the data rate of a reverse link <br/>communication of an access terminal includes receiving a reverse activity bit <br/>(RAB) from an access point in the communication system, and passing the RAB to <br/>a digital filter to produce a filtered RAB. The reverse link data rate is <br/>determined based on the filtered value of the RAB. Furthermore, a processor in <br/>the access terminal may determine whether the access terminal is in an idle <br/>mode, and passing a non-busy state value of the RAB to the digital filter when <br/>the access terminal is in the idle mode. The filtered RA may be compared to a <br/>threshold to determine a mode of reverse link data rate determination. The <br/>mode defines a set of criteria for an aggressiveness level of increasing or <br/>decreasing the reverse link communication data rate. The processor, therefore, <br/>determines the data rate based on the filtered reverse activity bit in <br/>accordance with the determined mode.<br/>
