A method and apparatus for allocating a Unicast Access Terminal Identifier (UATI) to an access terminal in a 1× Evolution Data Only (1×EV-DO) system serving as a high-speed data dedicated system. In order that a temporary identifier is allocated to an access terminal (AT) moving from a source subnet to a destination subnet in a high-speed data dedicated system, the AT transmits a temporary-identifier allocation completion message to the destination subnet when the AT moves to the destination subnet while performing a temporary-identifier allocation procedure with the source subnet. Upon receiving the temporary-identifier allocation completion message from the AT, the destination subnet transmits a temporary-identifier allocation completion request message to the source subnet. The source subnet transmits a temporary-identifier allocation completion response message to the destination subnet in response to the temporary-identifier allocation completion request message. The destination subnet allocates a new temporary identifier for the AT in response to the temporary-identifier allocation completion response message, and transmits a temporary-identifier allocation completion acknowledgement message to the AT. Therefore, while the AT moves between the subnets, the UATI allocation procedure can be stably performed.
