A method for determining a gating rate in a base station for a CDMA communication system is disclosed. The method comprises transmitting information for assigning a dedicated control channel and a traffic channel to a mobile station, when a call is generated; after call setup, transmitting a message requesting mobile station's capability information to the mobile station; receiving the capability information including gating availability information of a reverse pilot signal and information about at least one gating rate, transmitted from the mobile station in reply to the request message; and determining a gating rate according to the capability information, transmitting information about the determined gating rate to the mobile station, and transitioning to an active sate. The mobile station's capability information includes information about gating availability and at least one gating rate, when gating is available.

The invention claimed is: 1. A data communication method for a base station, wherein a gating rate, for data, between the base station and a mobile station is determined during call setup, and the base station gates communication of data with the mobile station at the determined gating rate, the method comprising the steps of: communicating data over a traffic channel assigned during the call setup; transmitting a state transition message including a gating-on time and the gating rate to the mobile station, when there is no data to communicate for a constant time in the data communicating step; and gating data communication with the mobile station at the gating-on time at the determined gating rate. 2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gating communication data is power control information of the forward dedicated control channel. 3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the constant time is a predetermined time set by a timer of the base station. 4. A data communication method for a mobile station, wherein a gating rate, for a pilot signal, between the base station and a mobile station is determined during call setup, and data communication between the mobile station and the base station is performed at the determined gating rate, the method comprising the steps of: communicating data over a traffic channel assigned during the call setup; receiving a state transition message including a gating-on time transmitted from the base station, when there is no data to communicate in the data communicating step; and gating data communication with the base station at the gating-on time at the determined gating rate. 5. The method as claimed in claim 4, wherein the gating communication data is power control information of the forward dedicated control channel. 6. The method as claimed in claim 4, wherein the constant time is a predetermined time set by a timer of the base station. 7. A method for communicating data between a base station and a mobile station after determining a gating rate during call setup, comprising the steps of: communicating data over a traffic channel assigned during the call setup between the base station and the mobile station; transmitting a state transition message including a gating-on time from the base station to the mobile station, when there is no data to communicate for a predetermined time in the data communicating step; and gating, in the base station and the mobile station, transmission of the pilot signal to the base station at the gating-on time at the determined gating rate.
