The beginning and end of tune away is determined from a TuneAway attribute, a TuneAwayRequest and a TuneAwayResponse messages. The access terminal and the access network operate on multiple tune away schedules. specifying tune away schedules by a separate TuneAway attribute. The same TuneAwayRequest and the TuneAwayResponse messages are shared. The tune away operation is controlled through a variable TunedAwayStatus, wherein the variable TunedAwayStatus is public data of the protocol. It is determined if an access terminal has tuned away.
