Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for co-ordination of uplink scrambling codes between different radio network controllers ( ) and the assignment of such codes to radio connections ( ) of user equipments ( ) in a code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system. The invention also relates to methods for creating a starting vector used to generate said scrambling codes. According to the invention, a unique subset of scrambling codes is dedicated to each radio network controller ( ) by assigning an offset vector ( ). Initial starting vectors ( ) are composed by concatenating the offset vector ( ) and the binary representation of a determining value ( ) within the size range of the dedicated code subset. An idle starting vector is selected, e.g., by using a one-dimensional array ( ) containing a status bit for each scrambling code and by using the array index ( ) as determining value ( ).
