(In topic `Mobile Internet`) TDMA (Time-Division Multiple Access) is a mobile communications system standard which has a market share in countries where GSM has not been adopted such as the USA.
Time Division Multiple Access - one of two digital cellular standards used primarily in North America. See GSM and CDMA
1. Time Division Multiple Access: a digital wireless telephony transmission technique. TDMA allocates each user a different time slot on a given frequency. GSM, D-AMPS, PDC and DECT use TDMA in one form or another. 2. A name generally used for D-AMPS. TDMA networks are operated in the US, Latin America, New Zealand, parts of Russia and Asia Pacific…
...Time Division Multiple Access
Time Division Multiple Access. In mobile telecommunications, sharing a single radio frequency between several mobiles using a fixed repeating frame structure. TDMA is similar to the TDM (time division multiplexing) used in wireline PCM but requires specialised MAC (media access control) to allocates slots in each frame to a phone call (or for data). Systems using TDMA include PDC, GSM, and IS-136 (often simply called TDMA in North America, to distinguish it from the IS-95 CDMA standard). GSM supports eight-way TDMA in each 200 KHz radio channel. IS-136 supports three-way TDMA in a 30 KHz channel.
