In 1989, we publicly introduced the concept that a digital communication technique
called CDMA could be commercially successful in wireless communication applications.
CDMA stands for Code Division Multiple Access and is one of the three main technologies
currently used in digital wireless communications networks. CDMA and the two other
main digital wireless communications technologies, TDMA (which stands for Time
Division Multiple Access) and GSM (which is a form of TDMA and stands for Global
System for Mobile Communications) are the digital technologies used to transmit
a wireless phone user’s voice or data over radio waves using the wireless phone
operator’s network. CDMA works by converting speech into digital information,
which is then transmitted in the form of a radio signal over the phone network.
These digital wireless phone networks are complete phone systems comprised primarily
of base stations, or “cells,” which are geographically placed throughout a service
or coverage area. Once communication between a wireless phone user and a base
station is established, the system detects the movement of the wireless phone
user and the communication is handed off to another base station, or cell, as
the wireless phone user moves throughout the service area.
