 FREQUENCY DIVISION
MULTIPLE ACCESS
 Channel access technique found in multiple
access protocol as a channelization protocol

 Permit individual allocation of single or

multiple frequency bands , or channels to the
users.

 Just like other multiple access system,

harmonizes access between multiple users.
 FDMA Overview
 In FDMA method, guard bands are used between the
adjacent signal spectra to minimize crosstalk between
the channels

 A specific frequency band is given to one person, and it

will received by identifying each of the frequency on the
receiving end.

 It is often used in the first generation of analog mobile

phone.
 Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), different signals
are assigned frequency channels.
 A channel is a frequency.
 FDMA is a basic technology in the analog Advanced Mobile
Phone System (AMPS).
 With FDMA, each channel can be assigned to only one user at
a time. FDMA is also used in the Total Access Communication
System (TACS).
FEATURES
IN FDMA
 MAIN FEATURES IN
FDMA
 Every users shares the frequency channel or satellite
transponder simultaneously , however every user
transmit at single frequency
 FDMA is a compatible with both digital and analog
signals
 FDMA demands highly efficient filters in the radio
hardware
 FDMA is a devoid of timing issues that exist in TDMA
 All users trasmit and receive at different frequencies
because every user receives an individual frequency slot.
 FDMA-
ADVANTAGE
&
DISADVANTAGE
 FDMA- ADVANTAGE
 Reduces the bit rate information and the use of efficient
numerical codes increases the capacity.
 It reduces the cost and lowers the inter symbol interference
(ISI)
 Equalization is not necessary.
 An FDMA system can be easily implemented.
 A system can be configured so that the improvements in
terms of speech encoder and bit rate reduction may be easily
incorporated.
 Since the transmission is continuous, less number of bits are
required for synchronization and framing.
 FDMA- DISADVANTAGE
 It does not differ significantly from analog systems
improving the capacity depends on the signal-to-
interference reduction, or a signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR).
 The maximum flow rate per channel is fixed and
small.
 Guard bands lead to a waste of capacity.
 Hardware implies narrowband filters, which
cannot be realized in VLSI and therefore increases
the cost.
