METHODS FOR ASSIGNING SCRAMBLING CODES AND REDUCING INTERFERENCE IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS

摘要

Example methods use secondary scrambling codes in telecommunications networks. The secondary scrambling codes are assigned to mobile stations and channels used by mobile stations that are not adversely affected by the use of secondary scrambling codes. By assigning secondary scrambling codes additional users can utilize telecommunications networks with unique scrambling codes without reducing quality of service or increasing resource consumption. Example methods also reduce interference between mobile stations in the telecommunications networks.
