Frequency division multiple access (FDMA)

FDMA is the allocation of specific channels within a defined radio frequency bandwidth to carry a specific user’s information. FDMA is a mature, reliable method of RF communication, but requires more spectrum than competing technologies to deliver its payload.

One of several technologies used to separate multiple conversation transmissions over a finite frequency allocation of throughtheair bandwidth. TDMA is used to allocate a discrete amount of frequency bandwidth to each user in order to permit many simultaneous conversations. However, each caller is assigned a specific time slot for transmission.

A communication medium that supports only a single communication signal at a time. A form of modulation in which data signals are pulsed directly on the transmission medium without frequency division and usually utilize a transceiver. In baseband, the entire bandwidth of the transmission medium (cable) is utilized for a single channel. It uses a single carrier

An older technique in which the available transmission bandwidth of a circuit is divided by frequency into narrow bands, each used for a separate voice or data transmission channel, which many conversations can be carried on one circuit.

A feature/benefit provided by service providers that allows clients to consume more bandwidth when needed and if the carrier network has the capacity. Such consumption is often charged at a much higher rate.
