 Time division multiple access - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The only country to continue pursuing TD-SCDMA (time division synchronous CDMA) is mainland China, perhaps because the government does not want to pay patent royalties to Qualcomm of the USA or licensing fees to the mainly European UMTS consortium.
This is why early efforts to incorporate timeslots into UMTS failed, leaving UMTS as a purely CDMA technology.
In the GSM system, the synchronisation of the mobile phones is achieved by sending timing advance commands from the base station which instructs the mobile phone to transmit earlier and by how much.

 Time-division multiplexing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Time-division multiplexing (TDM) is a type of digital multiplexing in which two or more apparently simultaneous channels are derived from a given frequency spectrum, i.e., bit stream, by interleaving pulses representing bits from different channels.
What distinguishes coarse time-division multiplexing from packet switching is that the time-slots are pre-allocated to the channels, rather than arbitrated on a per-time slot basis.
TDM was a synchronous technique invented during World War II to encrypt transatlantic radio conversation between Churchill and Roosevelt.

 Multiplexing
Multiplexing is the set of techniques that allows the simultaneous transmission of multiple signals across a single data link.
The multiplexer allocates exactly the same time slot to each device at all times, whether or not a device has anything to transmit.
Time slot 1, for example, is assigned to device 1 alone and cannot be used by any other device as shown below.

 Time division multiplexing system - Patent 4410980
In the well-known time division multiplexing systems, however, the digital signals of a plurality of channels to be subjected to the time division multiplexing generally must have either the same bit rate or bit rates which are an integral multiple of one another.

 Time-division multiplexing (from telecommunication) --  Britannica Student Encyclopedia
Multiplexing also may be conducted through the interleaving of time segments from different signals onto a single transmission path—a process known as time-division multiplexing (TDM).
Time-division multiplexing of multiple signals is possible only when the available data rate of the channel exceeds the data rate of the total number of users.

 An Overview of Multiplexing
However, Time Division Multiplexing is the preferred approach today, due to its ability to support native data I/O (Input/Output) channels.
Since these "time slices" for each I/O port are known to both the transmitter and receiver, the only requirement is for the transmitter and receiver to be in-step; that is to say, being at the right place (I/O port) at the right time.
Multiplexing is the process where multiple channels are combined for transmission over a common transmission path.

 Definition: time-division multiplexing
A multiplexing technique whereby two or more channels are derived from a transmission mediuim by dividing access to the medium into sequential intervals.
Digital multiplexing in which two or more apparently simultaneous channels are derived from a given frequency spectrum, i.e.
Each channel has access to the entire bandwidth of the medium during its interval.

 Define STDM - a Whatis.com definition - see also: statistical time-division multiplexing
STDM, or statistical time division multiplexing, is one method for transmitting several types of data simultaneously across a single transmission cable or line (such as a T1 or T3 line).
TDM allows multiple users or input devices to transmit or receive data simultaneously by assigning each device the same, fixed amount of time on one of many "channels" available on the cable or line.
In comparison to TDM, the STDM method analyzes statistics related to the typical workload of each input device (printer, fax, computer) and determines on-the-fly how much time each device should be allocated for data transmission on the cable or line.

 Define time-division multiplexing - a Whatis.com definition - see also: TDM
Time-division multiplexing (TDM) is a method of putting multiple data streams in a single signal by separating the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration.
In some systems, a different scheme, known as frequency-division multiplexing (FDM), is preferred.
The scheme allows for variation in the number of signals being sent along the line, and constantly adjusts the time intervals to make optimum use of the available bandwidth.

 Time-Division Multiplexing
If using the capacity of the data medium more efficiently is im-portant, a more sophisticated technique, statistical time-division multiplexing (StatTDM), can be used.
Because the time divisions are programmed into the configurations of the multiplexors, this technique often is referred to as synchronous TDM.
Conventional TDM equipment utilizes fixed-time divisions and allocates time to a channel, regardless of that channel’s level of activity.
