Abstract

A method for sharing an associated control channel in a mobile communication system is disclosed, which comprises the steps of: assigning a physical associated control channel between a mobile station and a base station and assigning a number of logical channels to the associated control channel, in order that a number of users can request communication service simultaneously through the mobile station; setting a logical link identification and a link setting flag not used when the mobile station receives a request for a new call setting, and transmitting a connection setting request to the base station through the physical associated control channel; informing the mobile station that the connecting and setting of logical link identification is completed through the physical associated control channel when the base station receives the connection request from the mobile station; and setting a traffic channel for transmitting user information after completing the connection setting.
