3.0 TIME DIVISION MULTIPLE ACCESS
Here, the time Dimension is organized or subdivided into M time slices. So, several users are allowed to communicate simultaneously by assigning time slices to the users. This assignment could be Dedicated or Dynamic.
The period of time during which a user gets the chance to transmit (or receive) on the channel is referred to as Time Slot (TS). The information contained in a Time Slot is called a Burst.
The interval of time during which all the assigned users get the chance to use their respective Time Slots is referred to as the TDMA Frame.
