Pilot transmission in a wireless communication system

A method for wireless communication, comprising:

• generating a scrambling sequence based on a set of parameters comprising at least one static parameter;
• generating a pilot based on the scrambling sequence;
• and
• sending the pilot from a terminal to at least one sector.

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• means for generating a scrambling sequence based on a set of parameters comprising at least one static parameter;
• means for generating a pilot based on the scrambling sequence;
• and
• means for sending the pilot from a terminal to at least one sector.

A computer program product, comprising:

• a computer-readable medium comprising:
• code for causing at least one computer to generate a scrambling sequence based on a set of parameters comprising at least one static parameter;
• code for causing the at least one computer to generate a pilot based on the scrambling sequence;
• and
• code for causing the at least one computer to send the pilot to at least one sector.

A method for wireless communication, comprising:

• receiving a pilot from a terminal;
• generating a scrambling sequence for the terminal based on a set of parameters comprising at least one static parameter;
• and
• descrambling the received pilot with the scrambling sequence to obtain descrambled pilot for the terminal.

A method for wireless communication, comprising:

• generating a first scrambling sequence based on a first set of parameters;
• generating a pilot based on the first scrambling sequence;
• sending the pilot to at least one sector including a serving sector for a terminal;
• generating a second scrambling sequence based on a second set of parameters;
• scrambling traffic data based on the second scrambling sequence to obtain scrambled traffic data;
• and
• sending the scrambled traffic data to the serving sector.
