Abstract:
1. A method of associating a Training code to a Channelization code for use in a mobile telecommunication system comprising a base station and a mobile terminal, the method comprising the steps of: selecting a Channelization code; encoding data according to the Channelization code; selecting a Training code based on a predetermined selection process; transmitting the Training code with the data; detecting the Training code and the data, and applying a set of rules to the Training code such that the Channelization code is known, thereby facilitating interpretation of the data; wherein the mobile telecommunications system is operating in an uplink mode, and the method further comprises the steps of, the mobile terminal selecting at random a Channelization code from a plurality of available Channelization codes; the predetermined selection process being such that the Training code selected for transmission to the base station is determined by the Channelization code selected; and the set of rules applied to the Training code upon detection by the base station being such that for each Training code detected the Channelization code used to encode the data received with that Training code is known.
