A hybrid DSMA-CR/CDMA methodology provides efficient access to one of a group of packet channels in a spread spectrum wireless communication network. The base station broadcasts status information as to the availability and/or available data rates for each packet channel or group of channels. Each mobile station uses the status information to select an available channel and/or a channel with sufficient data rate. The mobile station then starts transmission of a series of access preambles, each of which contains a signature corresponding to the selected channel. The mobile station transmits the preambles at increasing power levels. When the base station detects a preamble transmission, the base station responds with a corresponding acknowledgement essentially permitting the mobile station to send its packet data along with any closed-loop power control information over the selected channel.

The method of claim 1, wherein the selected channel is a common packet channel. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein: a transmission from the BS-spread-spectrum transmitter of the one base station intended for the one mobile station utilizes a downlink channel corresponding to the selected channel; and if the MS-spread-spectrum receiver of the one mobile station detects a loss of the downlink channel, the MS-spread-spectrum receiver of the one mobile station halts any further transmission over the selected channel. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising a collision resolution phase executed between the receipt of the acknowledgment signal and the transmission by the one mobile station over the selected channel. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the collision resolution phase comprises: transmitting from the MS-spread-spectrum transmitter of the one mobile station a spread-spectrum signal comprising a collision detection preamble; receiving the collision detection preamble from the one mobile station at the BS spread-spectrum receiver of the one base station and substantially concurrently receiving a collision detection preamble from another mobile station at the BS spread-spectrum receiver of the one base station; selecting the one mobile station for assignment of the selected channel; transmitting from the BS-spread-spectrum transmitter of the one base station a base station collision detection preamble, the base station collision detection preamble corresponding to the collision detection preamble from the one mobile station; and receiving the base station collision detection preamble at the MS-spread-spectrum receiver of the one mobile station, wherein the step of transmitting the spread-spectrum signal comprising one or more of data and power control information from the MS-spread-spectrum transmitter of the one mobile station over the selected channel is responsive to the receipt of the base station collision detection preamble. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein each segment of the access burst signal comprises a selected one of a group of access preamble signatures, the selected one signature corresponding to the selected channel. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the acknowledgement signal corresponds to the selected one signature. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the data regarding current status indicates an idle status for at least one channel from among a group of channels associated with the one base station. 9. The method of ciaim 1, wherein the step of transmitting over the selected channel comprises: transmitting a first packet that is ready to send over the selected channel; and piggybacking at least one additional packet that becomes ready-to-send immediately after transmission of the first data packet. 10. A method of allowing access to a channel of a wireless communication network, comprising: transmitting a broadcast common-status channel, the broadcast common-status channel comprising availability-related status information for one or more channels of a group of packet channels allocated to a base station of the network; receiving from a remote station an access burst, the access burst comprising a sequence of coded preamble signals at sequentially increasing discrete power levels, each coded preamble signal in the sequence comprising one of a plurality of possible signature codes, the one signature code corresponding to one of the packet channels selected from the group by the remote station based on the status information; detecting a first one of the coded preamble signals of the sequence that is received at an adequate power level; and upon detection of the first coded preamble signal at the adequate power level, transmitting an acknowledgement signal corresponding to the one signature code. 11.
