Abstract
A radio communication system has means for enabling the control channels associated with a data channel transmitting packet data with a low duty cycle to be switched to a dormant state or interrupted entirely. This reduces the excessive overhead that such control channels represent on a data channel only using a small proportion of the available channel capacity.
