Abstract
A method for using a code division multiple access (CDMA) subscriber unit to transmit a communication to a base station at a first data rate using at least one communication channel, determine an adjusted data rate desired for support of the communication, and transmit the communication to the base station over a second channel at a second data rate, wherein the first data rate is different than the second data rate.
Claims8
A code division multiple access (CDMA) subscriber unit comprising:
- an antenna;
- a circuit coupled to the antenna, the circuit configured to transmit a communication to a base station over a first channel at a first data rate;
- the circuit further configured to determine an adjusted data rate desired for support of the communication;
- and
- the circuit further configured to transmit the communication to the base station over a second channel at a second data rate, wherein the first data rate is different than the second data rate;
- wherein the circuit is further configured to receive power control information from the base station that is time multiplexed onto a physical channel using control signaling and adjust a power level associated with at least one of the channels in accordance with the power control information.
