Cdma
Cdma
Multiple Accesses is the simultaneous use of a communication system by one or more user. Each users signal must be kept uniquely distinguishable from users signals to allow private communications on demand.
Users can be separated many ways: I. Physically: on separated wires II. By arbitrarily defined channels
FDMA
TDMA
CDMA
FDMA is a multiple access method in which users are assigned specific frequency bands. The user has sole right of using the frequency band for the entire call duration.
In TDMA an assigned frequency band shared among a few users. However, each user is allowed to transmit in predetermined time slots. Hence, channelization of user is achieved through separation in time.
Each user has specified frequency for all time Each user has been given a unique code pattern From these codes connections are identified. This unique code is buried within a shared signal, mingled with other users code patterns. If a users code pattern is known, the presence or absence of their signal can be detected, thus conveying information. Numbers of users are very large
Spread spectrum
Direct sequence: The digital data is directly coded at a much higher frequency. The code is generated pseudo-randomly, the receiver knows how to generate the same code, and correlates the received signal with that code to extract the data. Frequency hopping: The signal is rapidly switched between different frequencies within the hopping bandwidth pseudo-randomly, and the receiver knows before hand where to find the signal at any given time.
PN SEQUENCE GENERATION
Assume three users share same medium Users are synchronized & use different 4-bit orthogonal codes: {-1,-1,-1,-1}, {-1, +1,-1,+1}, {-1,-1,+1,+1}

Sum Signal
Each receiver takes sum signal and integrates by code sequence of desired transmitter Integrate over T seconds to smooth out noise

ADVANTAGES OF CDMA
Universal frequency reuse Increased cellular communications security. system capacity is higher than TDMA and FDMA operate at very low power levels.
