Outlines
• Duplexing

– TDMA
– Spread Spectrum Multiple Access
• Frequency Hopped Multiple Access (FHMA)
• Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA)
• Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA)
• Capacity of cellular systems
Introduction
• Multiple access schemes are used to allow many
mobile users to share simultaneously a finite amount
of radio spectrum.
– High capacity is required.
– must be done without severe degradation in the
performance.
• Duplexing is needed to allow subscribers send and
receive information simultaneously.
Duplexing
• Using frequency or time domain techniques.
• Frequency division duplexing (FDD)
– Provides two distinct bands of frequencies for
every user.
– Forward band----from the base station to the
mobile
– Reverse band----from the mobile to the base.
– Consists of two simplex channels
– Duplexer is used
– The frequency split between the forward and
reverse channel is constant.
• Time division duplexing (TDD)
– Uses time to provide both a forward and reverse
link.
– If the time split between the forward and reverse
time slot is small, then the transmission and
reception of data appears simultaneous.
– Allows communication on a single channel and
simplifies the subscriber equipment since a
duplexer is not required.
Trade-offs between FDD and TDD
• FDD
– Each transceiver simultaneously transmits and receives radio
signals, the frequency allocation used for the forward and
reverse channels must be carefully coordinated with out-of-
band users that occupy spectrum between these two bands.
– The frequency separation must be coordinated to permit the
use of inexpensive RF technology.
• TDD
– Eliminate the need for separate forward and reverse
frequency bands.
– There is a time latency due to the fact that communications
is not full duplex in the truest sense.
Multiple Access
Narrowband Systems
– The available radio spectrum is divided into a large number of narrowband
channels.
– Each channel is relatively narrow compared with the coherence bandwidth.
– The channels are usually operated using FDD.
– To minimize interference between forward and reverse links, the frequency
split is made as great as possible
allowing inexpensive duplexers
• Narrowband FDMA ---- a user is assigned a particular channel which is
not shared by other users.
If FDD is used, the system is called FDMA/FDD.
• Narrowband TDMA ---- allows users to share the same channel but
allocates a unique time slot to each user.
– For narrowband TDMA, there generally are a large number of channels
allocated using either FDD or TDD, and each channel is shared using TDMA.
TDMA/FDD or TDMA/TDD
Wideband systems
• The transmission bandwidth of a single channel is
much larger than the coherence bandwidth.
• A large number of transmitters are allowed to
transmit on the same channel.
• Wideband TDMA ---- allocates time slots to the many
transmitters on the same channel and allows only one
transmitter to access the channel at any instant of
time
TDMA/FDD, TDMA/TDD
• Wideband CDMA ---- allows all of the transmitters to
access the channel at the same time.
CDMA/FDD, CDMA/TDD
9.2 Frequency Division Multiple
Access (FDMA)
• Each user is allocated a unique frequency
band or channel.
• These channels are assigned on demand, and
can not be shared.
