Part IV of no knowledge is a dangerous thing: This IDC one (published January 4, 2000) looked worthy of some critical review as it appears central to what the WCDMA folk are trying to accomplish:

Abstract: A spread-spectrum CDMA communications system for communicating data between a plurality of users to a plurality of spread-spectrum units. The spread-spectrum communications system is located within a same geographical region as occupied by an existing FDMA, proposed TDMA or any other mobile-cellular system. The spread-spectrum CDMA communications system includes a plurality of spread-spectrum-base stations and a plurality of spread-spectrum units. A spread-spectrum-base station has a comb filter for notch filtering predetermined channels of the mobile-cellular system, a device for converting the format of the data into a form for communicating over radio waves, a spread-spectrum modulator for spread-spectrum processing the data, and a transmitter for transmitting the spread-spectrum-processed converted data from the spread-spectrum-base station to a spread-spectrum unit. The spread-spectrum-base station also has an antenna, and spread-spectrum detectors for recovering data communicated from the spread-spectrum units. A spread-spectrum unit has an antenna, and a detector, including a spread-spectrum demodulator, coupled to the antenna for recovering data communicated from the spread-spectrum-base station, and the spread-spectrum unit has a spread-spectrum modulator, a transmitter, and a device for converting the format of the data for communicating over radio waves.
