In a telecommunications network that employs a CDMA scheme, the amplitude associated with each independent CDMA carrier is digitally limited, thereby limiting the peak-to-average power ratio. This, in turn, is accomplished by measuring the instantaneous amplitude for the in-phase and quadrature signals that make up each CDMA carrier, deriving a maximum amplitude based on the instantaneous amplitude measurements, and then deriving one or more scaling factors based, in-part, on maximum amplitude. The one or more scaling factors are then applied to the in-phase and quadrature signals, which are subsequently filtered, combined and modulated by a corresponding CDMA carrier frequency.
