Abstract In this paper, the channelization code for 3GPP is introduced, and some methods to assign OVSF code will be mentioned. The relationship between PAR and OVSF code assignment will be discussed, and a simple method for initial OVSF code assignment in W-CDMA is studied. The assignment method is for the purpose of reducing PAR and it is based on the concept of "even distribution". The simulation shows that it is a useful and simple method to assign OVSF codes. keyword:CCDF, OCNS, OVSF code assignment, PAR, W-CDMA. Introduction. I.. Wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA) is one of the wideband digital cellular technologies that are used for the third generation. wireless. communication.. For. W-CDMA, spread spectrum is used to transmit multiple channels over a common bandwidth, and the capacity of the W-CDMA system is limited by the interference from other channels. In the 3GPP technical specification, orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) codes are selected to be the channelization codes which are used for spreading.. OVSF codes haves the. property of preserving the orthogonality between different physical channels.. Because the. number of the OVSF codes is finite, it is a valuable resource and should be utilized properly. In [1], a code channel assignment method to support as many users as possible with less complexity is found. In [2], an optimal dynamic code assignment scheme is used to enhance statistical multiplexing and spectral efficiency of W-CDMA systems supporting variable user data rates. Besides, the OVSF code assignment has significant effect on the value of peak-to-average ratio (PAR), and it is important to assign OVSF codes properly. In [3], it is found that PAR of the signal depends on the Walsh code assignment for IS-95 and CDMA2000. Moreover, a method to control PAR by selective Walsh code mapping is proposed. In [4], it is found that the RF.
