Method of adaptive Walsh code allocation

A method of adaptive Walsh code allocation in a wireless communication system. The method includes the step of each voice user transmitting quality condition signal, such as a pilot signal strength measurement to a corresponding base station. Upon receiving each quality condition signal, the method includes determining a spreading factor for each voice user in response to its quality condition signal. A Walsh code is thereafter allocated to each voice user in response to the determined corresponding spreading factor. Thus, for example, if the quality condition signal of a first voice user is relatively higher than the quality condition signal of a second voice user, the spreading factor allocated to the first voice user should be longer than the spreading factor of the second voice user.

Method and apparatus for providing uplink packet data service in asynchronous WCDMA system

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for providing uplink packet data services through an E-DCH in an asynchronous WCDMA system. A transport block size (TBS) for transmitting uplink transport channel data is determined. A combination of a spreading factor and a modulation scheme for uplink channel data transmission, corresponding to the determined TBS, is selected according to transmittable physical channel data bit sizes and puncturing limit values. The TBS is transmitted by incorporating it into control information of the uplink transport channel data. The modulation scheme and spreading factor combination is determined based on a physical channel data bit size that maximizes transmission efficiency and minimizes the number of punctured bits, without requiring an additional physical channel in transmitting the uplink data having the TBS. This method maximizes uplink transmission efficiency to save transmission resources and reduces signaling overhead required to transmit E-DCH control information.
