  2. Multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplexing

    Multiplexing is provided by the physical layer of the OSI model, while multiple access also involves a media access control protocol, which is part of the data link layer. The Transport layer in the OSI model, as well as TCP/IP model, provides statistical multiplexing of several application layer data flows to/from the same computer.

  3. Wavelength-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength-division...

    In fiber-optic communications, wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) is a technology which multiplexes a number of optical carrier signals onto a single optical fiber by using different wavelengths (i.e., colors) of laser light. [1]

  4. Time-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-division_multiplexing

    Time-division multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting and receiving independent signals over a common signal path by means of synchronized switches at each end of the transmission line so that each signal appears on the line only a fraction of time according to agreed rules, e.g. with each transmitter working in turn.

  5. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_frequency...

    One key principle of OFDM is that since low symbol rate modulation schemes (i.e., where the symbols are relatively long compared to the channel time characteristics) suffer less from intersymbol interference caused by multipath propagation, it is advantageous to transmit a number of low-rate streams in parallel instead of a single high-rate stream.

  6. Time-division multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-division_multiple_access

    TDMA is a type of time-division multiplexing (TDM), with the special point that instead of having one transmitter connected to one receiver, there are multiple transmitters. In the case of the uplink from a mobile phone to a base station this becomes particularly difficult because the mobile phone can move around and vary the timing advance ...

  7. Frequency-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Frequency-division_multiplexing

    Where frequency-division multiplexing is used as to allow multiple users to share a physical communications channel, it is called frequency-division multiple access (FDMA). [1] FDMA is the traditional way of separating radio signals from different transmitters.

  8. Code-division multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code-division_multiple_access

    Code-division multiple access (CDMA) is a channel access method used by various radio communication technologies. CDMA is an example of multiple access, where several transmitters can send information simultaneously over a single communication channel.
