Abstract :
In this paper we describe a proposal for a radio link control/medium access control (RLC/MAC) protocol for a W-CDMA system. It makes use of the flexibility offered by the physical layer in the sense that it supports variable bit rate services. In addition the RLC/MAC is designed such that multiple services are supported, without the necessity to transmit with multiple spreading codes
