The emerging multimedia communication needs more support in operating systems in order to be successful over a wireless environment. The system needs to support a seamless integration (i.e., transparent application switching) of voice, audio and conventional data (e.g., e-mails, and ftp). It should also support multiple users with a guaranteed quality. In this paper, we investigate effective protocol design with dynamic spreading factors such that various QoS based on different traffic types can be provided. Increasing spreading factors can benefit the system because it will increase the desired signal strength linearly. The measured bit error rate can be reduced 75 times with a long spreading factor. By taking advantage of this benefit, we propose some middle-ware solutions to monitor the network load and switch the spreading factors dynamically based on the current load with multimedia traffic. These middle-ware solutions are implemented in mobile and base stations and experiments are performed to measure the actual system performance. The preliminary results indicate that our proposed system can always maintain a desired quality for all the voice connections. We further extend our protocol to guarantee a balanced support among different traffic types. While the voice communication is still guaranteed to be non-interrupted, the data traffic is proved to be served with reasonable response time by our proposed system.
