Multiple Access Techniques

• Lack of resources.• Trying to optimize the usage of the available ones.


Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA)

• The whole system spectrum is allocated for single user for pre-defined burst of time.



• Advantages- More efficient use of spectrum, compared to FDMA - No need for precise narrowband filters- Flexible bit rate- Easy for mobile or base stations to initiate and execute hands off- Extended battery life



• Disadvantages- Requires network-wide timing synchronization- Multipath distortion


Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA)

• Pre-defined band of the system spectrum is allocated for single user all the time.



• Advantages- Sub-bands can be treated as independent systems - Capacity increase can be obtained by reducing the information bit rate and using efficient digital code- No need for network timing



• Disadvantages- The presence of guard bands- Requires right RF filtering to minimize adjacent channel interference- Channel bandwidth is relatively narrow (30kHz)- Maximum bit rate per channel is fixed- Idle channels add to spectrum inefficiency





Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

• The whole system spectrum is allocated for single user all the time.





Spread Spectrum Technique• Spectrum: Power spectrum associated with

the base-band signal.• Spread Spectrum: Spreading the base-band

spectrum over a given bandwidth.• Total energy under the power spectrum curve

remains the same after spreading and amplitude may reach the noise level.





Direct Sequence Spreading


Direct Sequence De-Spreading





PN Sequences• Orthogonal Codes• Walsh Codes





Immunity to Interference


Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)• Advantages

- Greatest spectrum efficiency - No absolute limit on the number of users- Easy addition of more users- Impossible for hackers to decipher the code sent- No sense of handoff when changing cells “Soft Hand-off”- Simplified frequency planning- Random Walsh codes enhance user privacy- Precise power control increases talk time and battery life for mobile phones


Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)

• Disadvantages- As the number of users increases, the overall quality of service decreases- Near- Far- problem arises- Low ability of complying with existing systems

• WiMAX


Data Frames

• E1 Frame

• T1 Fram


E1 Frame



T1 Frame

-- Each T1 line is split into 24 channels referred to as DS0's. Each channel is 8 bits wide and the frame is sent on a 8KHz boundary.

- Every frame has synchronization bit at the beginning (8000 Hz).

The data capacity is therefore (24x8x8000)+8000 = 1.544Mbits/sec.
