1. A wireless transmitter, comprising:
- an encoder for encoding a set of information bits to provide a set of code symbols at a data rate;
a demultiplexer for providing said set of code symbols in first and second code symbol subsets having different code symbol rates to first and second modulators, wherein said data rate is equal to a combined said different code symbol rates, said first and second modulators respectively modulating said first and second code symbol subsets according to first and second code symbol rate formats, respectively, wherein said different code symbol rates have a ratio equal a number other than one, to provide modulated first code symbol subset and second code symbol subset.

Abstract
The present invention is a novel and improved method and apparatus for transmitting data in a multiple carrier CDMA communication system. In the first implementation of the present invention, the data is encoded and the resulting encoded symbols are divided up and transmitted on different frequencies. The encoded symbols are provided to a symbol repetition means which keeps the symbol rate of data to be transmitted fixed. In a second embodiment, no symbol repetition is provided and variable length Walsh sequences are used to handle data rate variations.
