A system and method for expanding traffic channels in a wireless communications system, such as CDMA2000, includes a method for generating a forward link signal including encoding each of a first set of channels with a mutually corresponding channel code, such as a Walsh code, selected from a predetermined set of channel codes, and encoding each of a second set of channels with the same mutually corresponding channel codes. A scramble code is applied to the encoded second set of traffic channels, which is combined with the encoded first set of traffic channels to form an extended forward link signal. Each channel code corresponds to two forward link channels, which are selectively decoded using the scramble code.

What is claimed is: 1. In a wireless communications system, a method for generating a forward link signal comprising: encoding each of a first set of traffic channels with one of sixty four Walsh Codes to form a forward link channel; encoding each of a second set of traffic channels with one of the sixty four Walsh Codes to form extended traffic channels; applying a scramble code to the extended traffic channels; and combining the forward link channel and the extended traffic channels to form an extended forward link channel. 2. The method of claim 1 further comprising: encoding a pilot channel with one of the sixty four Walsh Codes; and combining the encoded pilot channel with the first set of traffic channels. 3. The method of claim 1 further comprising: encoding a sync channel with one of the sixty four Walsh Codes; and combining the encoded sync channel with the first set of traffic channels. 4. The method of claim 1 further comprising: encoding a paging channel with one of the sixty four Walsh Codes; and combining the encoded paging channel with the first set of traffic channels. 5. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of applying a scramble code further comprises combining the encoded second set of traffic channels prior to applying the scramble code. 6. The method of claim 1 further comprising applying a pseudorandom number to the extended forward link channel, wherein the pseudorandom number identifies a transmitting base station. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving a request for a traffic channel from a subscriber unit; and determining if the requesting subscriber unit is capable of decoding said scrambled extended traffic channels. 8. The method of claim 7, further comprising selecting an available one of the extended traffic channels based at least in part on whether the requesting subscriber unit is capable of decoding the scrambled extended traffic channels. 9. The method of claim 8, further comprising returning, to the requesting subscriber unit, the scramble code and one of the predetermined set of codes corresponding to the selected one of the extended traffic channels. 10. The method of claim 7, further comprising selecting an available one of the first set of traffic channels if the requesting subscriber unit is not capable of decoding the scrambled extended traffic channels. 11. In a wireless communications system, a base station comprising: means for encoding each of a first set of traffic channels with one of sixty four Walsh Codes to form a forward link channel; means for encoding each of a second set of traffic channels with one of the sixty four Walsh Codes to form extended traffic channels; means for applying a scramble code to the extended traffic channels; and means for combining the forward link channel and the extended traffic channels to form an extended forward link channel. 12. The base station of claim 11 further comprising means for encoding a pilot channel with a unique one of the sixty four Walsh Codes, wherein the encoded pilot channel is combined with the first set of traffic channels. 13. The base station of claim 11 further comprising means for encoding a sync channel with a unique one of the sixty four Walsh Codes, wherein the encoded sync channel is combined with the first set of traffic channels. 14. The base station of claim 11 further comprising means for encoding a paging channel with a unique one of the sixty four Walsh Codes, wherein the encoded paging channel is combined with the first set of traffic channels. 15. The base station of claim 11 wherein the encoded second set of traffic channels are combined prior to applying the scramble code. 16. The base station of claim 11 wherein a pseudorandom number identifying a transmitting base station is applied to the extended traffic channels. 17. The base station of claim 11, further comprising: means for receiving a request for a traffic channel from a subscriber unit; and means for determining if the requesting subscriber unit is capable of decoding said scrambled extended traffic channels. 18. The base station of claim 17, further comprising means for selecting an available one of the extended traffic channels based at least in part on whether the requesting subscriber unit is capable of decoding the scrambled extended traffic channels. 19. The base station of claim 18, further comprising means for returning, to the requesting subscriber unit, the scramble code and one of the predetermined set of codes corresponding to the selected one of the extended traffic channels. 20. The base station of claim 17, further comprising means for selecting an available one of the first set of traffic channels if the requesting subscriber unit is not capable of decoding the scrambled extended traffic channels. 21. In a wireless communications system, a method for decoding a forward link signal comprising: receiving an identifier of a selected traffic channel, the identifier including a pseudorandom number associated with a transmitting base station, a channel code associated with a forward link channel in each of a first and second set of traffic channels, and a scramble code if the selected traffic channel is in the second set of traffic channels; receiving a signal broadcast by the base station; decoding the received signal using the pseudorandom number; if the selected traffic channel is in the second set of traffic channels, further decoding the signal using the scramble code, whereby the first set of traffic channels is scrambled; and applying the channel code to isolate the selected traffic channel. 22. The method of claim 21 wherein the channel code is a Walsh Code. 23. The method of claim 22 further comprising decoding a pilot channel with a predetermined Walsh Code before the step of applying the scramble code. 24. The method of claim 22 further comprising decoding a sync channel with a predetermined Walsh Code before the step of applying the scramble code. 25. The method of claim 22 further comprising decoding a paging channel with a predetermined Walsh Code and extracting the identifier of the selected traffic channel.
