A wireless communications power saving method and apparatus is provided. The method includes, when no reverse link traffic exists and no forward link traffic has been received for a predetermined amount of time, establishing, at a terminal, a reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle, and boosting overhead channel signal transmission power during ON slots and gating overhead channel and pilot signal transmission power during OFF slots. The design further includes estimating, at the terminal, an available data transmission rate, determining an actual data transmission rate, setting a terminal transmission duty cycle for a next period based on the estimated available data transmission rate, the actual data transmission rate, and a margin of error, and transmitting data from the terminal according to the terminal transmission duty cycle.

1. A method for saving terminal power in a wireless communication terminal, the method comprising: when no reverse link traffic exists and no forward link traffic has been received for a predetermined amount of time:establishing, at the terminal, a reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle including a plurality of ON slots and a plurality of OFF slots; andboosting overhead channel signal transmission power during ON slots and gating overhead channel and pilot signal transmission power during OFF slots. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising providing discontinuous transmission from the terminal when the terminal is configured to operate in discontinuous transmission mode. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the establishing, boosting, and gating operate when the terminal is not configured to operate in discontinuous transmission mode. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising aligning the reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle with a known frame offset. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the plurality of ON slots is equal in number to the plurality of OFF slots. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein boosting overhead channel signal transmission power comprises increasing overhead channel signal transmission power by a uniform quantity every ON slot. 7. A terminal in a wireless communication system, comprising: a processor configured to, when no reverse link traffic data exists and no forward link traffic has been received for a predetermined amount of time: establish a reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle including a plurality of ON slots and a plurality of OFF slots; andboost overhead channel signal transmission power during ON slots and gate overhead channel and pilot signal transmission power during OFF slots. 8. The terminal of claim 7, wherein the terminal is further configured to provide discontinuous transmissions when configured to operate in discontinuous transmission mode. 9. The terminal of claim 8, wherein the processor establishes, boosts, and gates when the terminal is not configured to operate in discontinuous transmission mode. 10. The terminal of claim 7, wherein the processor is further configured to align the reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle with a known frame offset. 11. The terminal of claim 7, wherein the plurality of ON slots is equal in number to the plurality of OFF slots. 12. The terminal of claim 7, wherein the terminal boosting overhead channel signal transmission power comprises increasing overhead channel signal transmission power by a uniform quantity every ON slot. 13. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, performs the following method: when no reverse link traffic exists and no forward link traffic has been received for a predetermined amount of time: establishing, at a terminal, a reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle including a plurality of ON slots and a plurality of OFF slots; andboosting overhead channel signal transmission power during ON slots and gating overhead channel and pilot signal transmission power during OFF slots. 14. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein the method further comprises providing discontinuous transmission from the terminal when the terminal is configured to operate in discontinuous transmission mode. 15. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 14, wherein the establishing, boosting, and gating operate when the terminal is not configured to operate in discontinuous transmission mode. 16. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein the method further comprises aligning the reverse link transmission pilot signal duty cycle with a known frame offset. 17. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein the plurality of ON slots is equal in number to the plurality of OFF slots. 18. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein boosting overhead channel signal transmission power comprises increasing overhead channel signal transmission power by a uniform quantity every ON slot.
