The allies decided to transmit over several frequencies, instead of one, making it difficult for the Germans to pick up the complete signal. CDMA(code division multiple access) Advantage of using CDMA ● Noise reduction ● Secrecy Spread singnal How to spread Transmit, receive and noise reduction IMT-2000 begins last year ● Celluer phone ● Foma (w-cdma) 384kbps ● 9.6kbps 2Mbps
