A method of adaptive Walsh code allocation in a wireless communication system. The method includes the step of each voice user transmitting quality condition signal, such as a pilot signal strength measurement to a corresponding base station. Upon receiving each quality condition signal, the method includes determining a spreading factor for each voice user in response to its quality condition signal. A Walsh code is thereafter allocated to each voice user in response to the determined corresponding spreading factor. Thus, for example, if the quality condition signal of a first voice user is relatively higher than the quality condition signal of a second voice user, the spreading factor allocated to the first voice user should be longer than the spreading factor of the second voice user.
