A method and apparatus for controlling the transmission of signals from one or more of a plurality of mobile stations to a base station on a plurality of M multiple access channels is described. A power control information packet formed from a plurality of power control bits is transmitted from the base station to the one or more mobile stations. Each of the power control bits in the power control information packet has a position that is mapped to a selected access channel and to a time offset within the selected access channel. The power control information packet is received at a first mobile station. A message is then transmitted from the first mobile station to the base station on a first access channel and at a first time offset associated with the first access channel.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for controlling transmission of signals from one or more mobile stations, the method comprising: transmitting a power control information packet formed from a plurality of power control bits from a base station to said one or more mobile stations; mapping a position of each of the power control bits in the power control information packet to a selected access channel of a plurality of access channels and to a time offset within the selected access channel. 2. A method for controlling transmission of signals from one or more mobile stations on a plurality of access channels, the method comprising: receiving a power control information packet at a first mobile station of said one or more mobile stations; and mapping a position of each of the power control bits in the power control information packet to a selected access channel of said plurality of access channels and to a time offset within the selected access channel. 3. The method as recited in claim 2, further comprising: controlling transmission of a signal from said first mobile station in accordance with a value of the power control bits in the position mapped to said selected access channel and time offset used by said first mobile station. 4. An apparatus for controlling transmission of signals from one or more mobile stations, the apparatus comprising: a transmitter for transmitting a power control information packet formed from a plurality of power control bits from a base station to said one or more mobile stations; a controller for mapping a position of each of the power control bits in the power control information packet to a selected access channel of a plurality of access channels and to a time offset within the selected access channel. 5. An apparatus for controlling transmission of signals from one or more mobile stations on a plurality of access channels, the apparatus comprising: a receiver for receiving a power control information packet at a first mobile station of said one or more mobile stations; a controller for mapping a position of each of the power control bits in the power control information packet to a selected access channel of said plurality of access channels and to a time offset within the selected access channel. 6. The apparatus as recited in claim 2, further comprising: a signal power controller for controlling transmission of a signal from said first mobile station in accordance with a value of the power control bits in the position mapped to said selected access channel and time offset used by said first mobile station.
