Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a service based on multiple data rates using scalability of a multimedia CODEC in an asynchronous code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system, which provides a multimedia broadcast and multicast service (MBMS). An entire cell area is divided into a first area and a second area. Specific data is separated into first data and second data. The first data is transmitted to the first area, and the second data is transmitted to the second area. A first electric power controller controls electric power for the first data. A second electric power controller controls electric power for the second data. A user equipment (UE) located in the second area receives the first data and the second data. The UE located in the second area combines the first data and the second data, thereby generating one data item.

Abstract: A method of performing an inter-RAT measurement for a handover from NB-TDD to GSM is provided. A UE, as it moves from an NB-TDD Node B to a GSM cell, receives a measurement control message from the NB-TDD Node B. The UE then measures the strength of a signal received from the GSM cell and verifies its identification for a predetermined measuring time. If the UE successfully verifies the identification of the GSM cell for the measuring time, it reports the signal strength measurement and the verified GSM cell identification to the NB-TDD Node B. If the UE fails to verify the identification of the GSM cell for the measuring time, it reports only the signal strength measurement to the NB-TDD Node B.

Abstract: A method for controlling channel access in a mobile communication system. A base station generates a broadcast channel frame, which includes status information indicating whether channel codes which are changing in real time are occupied or not. The base station transmits the broadcast channel frame at predetermined intervals. Then, a mobile station selects an available channel code based on information from the received broadcast channel frame, generates a channel assignment request message, and transmits the channel assignment request message on a random access channel. Upon reception of the channel assignment request message on the random access channel, the base station assigns a channel, sets a transmission rate, and transmits the information on a forward access channel.

The system transmits high-speed packet data from the Node-B to UE (User Equipment) through the HS-PDSCH, and the UE is located in a handover area between the Node-B and another Node-B adjacent thereto. Predetermined bits are then removed from given bits of the code symbols. The removed bits are then replaced with high-speed pilot bits for power control.

Abstract: A turbo channel encoding/decoding device for a CDMA communication system. The device disassembles an input frame into multiple sub frames of an appropriate length when the input data frame is very long, and then encodes and decodes the sub frames. Otherwise, when the input data frames are very short, the device assembles input frames into one super frame of an appropriate length and then encodes and decodes the super frame. After frame encoding/decoding, the frames are reassembled into the original input frames.
