Abstract
A method and apparatus for saving network resources in a CDMA2000 network, the method comprising the steps of receiving a data packet for a wireless data device at a base station controller in the CDMA2000 network; determining a frame transport capability of a forward common channel; checking whether the data packet falls within the frame transport capability; and if the data packet falls within the frame transport capability, encapsulating the data packet as a data burst message; and sending the data burst message over the forward common channel, wherein the sending step over the forward common channel precludes a dedicated data traffic channel being established for the data packet thereby saving network resources on the CDMA2000 network.
