What is TDMA technology?
Time division multiple access (TDMA) is a technology for shared medium networks. It allows several users to share the same frequency by dividing it into different timeslots. The users transmit in rapid succession, one after the other, each using their own timeslot. This allows multiple users to share the same transmission medium while using only the part of its bandwidth they require. TDMA is used in the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Personal Digital Cellular (PDC) and iDEN digital cellular standards, among others. It is also extensively used in satellite systems, local area networks, physical security systems, and combat-net radio systems.
