Abstract
Remote units (113) having large amounts of data to transmit will be dynamically assigned Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes corresponding to higher data rates and remote units (113) with lower amounts of data to be transmitted will be assigned OVSF codes corresponding to lower data rates. The reduction of the data rate between the base station (100) and remote units (113) occurs by changing the current OVSF codes utilized by both the remote units (113) and the base station (100). In order to eliminate collisions among remote units transmitting data, a remote units transmission is advanced and retarded in time based on an amount of offset from a frame boundary.
