APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RELEASING REVERSE COMMON CHANNEL INCDMA COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

An apparatus for indicating continuation of a common channel message being transmitted over a designated common channel in a CDMA communication system. A mobile station has a common channel message transmitting device which includ es a message generator for generating a stream of frames each comprised of an indicator field and a data field by dividing a data stream to be transmitted , inserting an indicator indicating an end frame in the indicator field of a last one of the frames, and inserting an indicator indicating a continuous frame in each indicator field of the frames other than the last frame; and a reverse common channel transmitter for transmitting the generated message. A base station has a common channel message receiving device which includes a reverse common channel receiver for receiving the reverse common channel message transmitted from the mobile station; and a message processor for examining the indicator field inserted in the received reverse common channe l frame, and releasing the reverse common channel when the indicator field indicates an end frame of the reverse common channel.
