In frequency modulation, the frequency of the carrier wave is varied in such a way that the change in frequency at any instant is proportional to another signal that varies with time.
The transfer of signals occupying a specified frequency band, such as a channel or group of channels, from one portion of the frequency spectrum to another, in such a way that the arithmetic frequency difference of signals within the band is unaltered.

 Time-Division Duplex CDMA Communications
In the simulations of [17], the FDD mode power control bits are transmitted on average every 500 µs for a total of 2000 b/s or 6.7 percent reduction in data transmission efficiency.
In FDD systems, the receiver in both the base station and the mobile unit must be equipped with a sufficient number of correlators and must estimate the channel impulse response.
Frequency utilization efficiency can be also much higher in TDD systems, especially when the operation frequencies are allocated in one single band, as is the case with system operating in the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band.

Full duplex refers to a communications device or channel that is capable of simultaneous transmission in both directions.

 Frequency-division multiple access - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Frequency Division Multiple Access or FDMA is an access technology that is used by radio systems to share the radio spectrum.
The terminology “multiple access” implies the sharing of the resource amongst users, and the “frequency division” describes how the sharing is done: by allocating users with different carrier frequencies of the radio spectrum.
In FDMA the given Radio Frequency (RF) bandwidth is divided into smaller frequency bands called subdivisions.
