MULTIPLE ACCESS METHODS
Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA)
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.

CDMA: Code Division Multiple Access
CDMA is a method in which users occupy the same
time and frequency allocations, and are channelized by
unique assigned codes. The signals are separated at the
receiver by using a correlator that accepts only signal
energy from the desired channel. Undesired signals
contribute only to the noise.
A CDMA system uses effective power control process.

Advantages:-
The main advantages of this technology
are:
1. Fast Network deployment.
2. Reduced service interruptions.
3. Low Maintenance & operational cost.
4. Better system coverage flexibility
5. Higher capacity
6. Easy transition to mobile services. 10
Salient Features of CDMA
• It is an advanced comm. Technology.
• It has Anti-jam and security features.
• Large capacity as compared to other Technology
like FDMA and TDMA.
• It uses spread spectrum technology
11
SPREADING SPECTRUM
Shannon’s Equation
C= W Log (1+S/N)
Where C=Capacity (bps)
W=Bandwidth
S=Signal Power
N=Noise Power
• Shannon’s Capacity Equation is basis for spread spectrum.
System with large band width can operate at very low SNR level
& can provide acceptable data rate per user.
• Therefore in CDMA
- All users uses same 1.25 MHz spectrum.
- Each user has unique Digital code identifier.
- Digital codes separate users to avoid interference.
12
Direct Sequence Spread using Walsh code
Consist of 64 orthogonal codes each 64 bits long
Spreads spectrum to 1.2288 M bps from 9.6 Kbps
Channel Capacity
C=W log (1+S/N)
Increasing BW improves Signal Transmission with lower S/N
Frequency 13
Spread spectrum principle:
Originally spread spectrum radio technology was
developed for military use to counter the interference
by hostile jamming. The broad spectrum of the
transmitted signal gives rise to”spread spectrum”. A
spectrum signal is generated by modulating the
radio frequency (RF) signal with a code consisting of
different pseudo random binary sequences, which is
inherently resistant to noisy signal environment.
14
A number of spread spectrum RF signals thus
generated share the same frequency spectrum and
thus the entire bandwidth available in the band will
be used by each of the users using same frequency
at the same time.
On the received side only the signal energy
with the selected binary sequence code is accepted
and information content is recovered. The other user
signals, whose codes do not match contribute only
the noise and are not “de-spread” back in
bandwidth. This transmission and reception of
signals differentiated by “codes” using the same
frequency simultaneously by a number of users is
known as code Division Multiple Access (CDMA).15
Techniques as opposed to conventional method of
Frequency Division Multiple Access and Time
Division Multiple Access.
In the fig. It has been tried to explain that how
the base band signal of 9.6 kbps is spread using a
long pseudo-random Noise(PN) source to occupy
entire bandwidth of 1.25 Mhz. At the receiving end
this signal will have interference from signals of
other users of the same cell, user different cells and
interference from other noise sources. All these
signals get combined with the desired signal but
using a correlator and correct PN code, the original
data can be reproduced back.

Frequency Reuse
In CDMA reuse patterns are not required.
Subscriber in every cell can use the same frequency
at the same time. Subscriber is discriminated from
another by the assignment of a unique code to every
conversation.
In GSM freq. Reuse pattern of 7 is used.

Spreading Codes
cdmaOne systems use two types of code sequences:
• Orthogonal sequences (Walsh codes).
• Pseudorandom Noise (PN) sequences.
Long codes (242 =4400 Billion)
Short codes (215 =32768)
28
Walsh Codes:-
In CDMA the traffic channels are separated by
Unique “Walsh” code. These are
(a) 64 codes of 64 Bit Length.
(b) Forwarded traffic channel Codes.
(c) All codes are orthogonal to each other.
(d) These codes provide Isolation between
multiple signals transmitted by base stations
29
The basic concept behind creation of the code is
as follows:
(a)Repeat the function right
(b)Repeat the function below
(c) Invert function (diagonally)

By using this technique we create a set of 64
such codes of 64 bit length which is known as
Walsh codes. All such codes are orthogonal to
each other. The individual subscriber now can
start communication using one of these codes.
These codes are traffic channel codes and are
used for orthogonal spreading of the information in
the entire bandwidth. Orthogonality provides
nearly perfect isolation between the multiple
signals transmitted by the base station.

identification.

CDMA CHL ARCHITECTURE
Pilot channel (W0)
The pilot is used by the subs unit to obtain initial
system synchronization and to distinguish cell
sites. Every sector of every cell site has a unique
pilot channel.
• Transmitted constantly.
• Allows the mobile to acquire the system.
• Provides mobile with signal strength comparison.
• Approximately 20% of the radiated power is in
the pilot.
34
• Has unique PN Offset(2 ) for each cell or sector.
15
Sync channel (W32)
Used during system Acquisition stage. Sync chl
provides the subs unit with network information
related to cell site identification, pilot transmit
power & cell site PN offset.
• Used by mobile to synchronize with the system
• Transmits sync message with
- Pilot PN offset - System time
- Long PN code - System ID
- Network ID - Paging chl data rate
35

PAGING CHLS (W1-W7)
On this chl base station can page the subs unit
and it can send call set-up and traffic chl
assignment information.
• Means of communication between base to
mobile station.
• Paging CHL data Rates can be 2.4,4.8 or 9.6
Kbps.
• CDMA assignment has 7 paging CHLs.
• Each paging CHL supports 180 pages per set.
• Total pages/ CDMA RF chl = 1260
36

• Used by base station to :
- Page mobile - Transmit overhead information
- Assign mobile to traffic channel
37
Traffic Channels ( W8-W31 & W33-W63)
The traffic chl carries the actual call. That is, the
voice and control information between the subs unit
& base station.
TX upto 9.6kbps on rate set 1 and upto 14.4kbps
on rate set 2.
38
Access CHLS.

access chl is used for call origination & for
response to pages, orders & registration
requests. It is paired with corresponding paging
chl.
(b) Each Access CHL use long PN code.
(c) Base station responds to transmission on a
particular Access CHL.
(d)Mobile responds to base station message by
emitting on Access CHL.

Rake receiver
CDMA mobiles use rake receivers. The rake
receiver essentially a set of four or more receivers
(or fingers). One of the receivers constantly
searches for different multipaths and helps to direct
the other three fingers to lock onto strong multipath
signals.
• Allows combined reception of up to three different
paths.
• Provides searcher receiver to identify changes in
path characteristics/new cells.
• Provides both path diversity and frequency diversity
