A CDMA complex QPSK spread modulation method and apparatus are provided, which can be operated on a reduced gate scale with reduced power consumption. Digital data signals are spread modulated by multipliers, with the first spreading codes generated from first spreading code generators, so as to produce spread modulated signals. These spread modulated signals are input to a complex QPSK processor where they are subjected to a complex QPSK operation with second spreading codes generated from second spreading code generators. The resultant signals are filtered through low-pass filters. Digital-to-analog converters convert the filtered signals into analog values. Signals including the QCH data signal are processed through multipliers so as to weight them with a gain factor G from a gain factor controller.
