To mitigate the adverse effects of the load imbalance phenomenon prevalent in spread spectrum, multi-carrier wireless communication systems, the system beneficially employs the use of handoff as a means for balancing the call traffic (commonly referred to as "load") among a plurality of carriers within the communication system. The multi-carrier wireless communication system monitors (214) a plurality of metrics corresponding to the loading of each of the plurality of carriers in the communication system and, based upon the metrics, will handoff (220) call traffic to and between the plurality of carriers, thereby mitigating the adverse effects associated with the load imbalance, in accordance with the invention.

Afin d'atténuer les effets indésirables du phénomène de déséquilibre de charge inhérent aux systèmes de communication sans fil, à plusieurs porteuses et à spectre étalé, ce système met en oeuvre de manière avantageuse une technique de transfert en tant que moyen destiné à équilibrer le trafic d'appel (appelé communément "charge") parmi une pluralité de porteuses d'un système de communication. Selon l'invention, le système de communication sans fil et à plusieurs porteuses contrôle (214) une pluralité de mesures correspondant à la charge supportée par chaque porteuse de la pluralité de porteuses du système, et en fonction de ces mesures, transfère (220) le trafic d'appel vers la pluralité de porteuses ou le répartit entre celles-ci, atténuant ainsi les effets indésirables inhérents au déséquilibre de charge.
