Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)
- Can also be called Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA)
- TDM shares the signal by dividing available transmission time on a medium among users.
- It uses digital signaling exclusively.
- There are two basic forms of TDM:
- Synchronous Time Division Multiplexing: Allocates fixed time slots to each user.
- Statistical Time Division Multiplexing: Dynamically allocates time slots based on user demand.
