Use of orthogonal or near orthogonal codes in reverse link

摘要

An apparatus for use with a shared access communication channel is disclosed. The chipping rate of a first group of terminals is determined. Transmissions on the shared access communication channel are encoded using first pseudorandom noise (PN) code and a phase shift at the first chipping rate and an orthogonal spreading code having a chipping rate less than the first chipping rate. The apparatus may receive a feedback channel assignment and may receive an indication of a change in timing on the assigned feedback channel.
