Abstract  Abstract

A method and system for providing asymmetric modes of operation in multi-carrier wireless communication systems. A method may assign a long code mask (LCM) to an information channel associated with a plurality of forward link carriers to transmit data from an access network to an access terminal; and multiplex the information channel on a reverse link carrier. The information channel may include one of data source channel (DSC) data rate control (DRC) and acknowledgment (ACK) information and the multiplexing may be code division multiplexing (CDM). The A may instruct the AT on whether to multiplex the DSC information based on feedback from the AT. The method may further offset the ACK information on the reverse link to reduce the reverse link peak to average CDM the information channel on an I-branch and on a Q-branch and transmit the code division multiplexed information channel on the reverse link carrier.
