Best answer 11 votes 11 votes The IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol is a carrier sense multiple access protocol with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA). https://www.net.t-labs.tu-berlin.de/teaching/computer_networking/05.07.htm anonymous answered May 7, 2017 • selected May 8, 2017 by ManojK anonymous comment Share Follow See 1 comment See all 1 1 comment reply Manoja Rajalakshmi A commented Dec 12, 2017 reply Follow Share Additional info: CDMA (Code-Division Multiple Access) refers to any of several protocols used in second-generation (2G) and third-generation (3G) wireless communications. As the term implies, CDMA is a form of multiplexing, which allows numerous signals to occupy a single transmission channel, optimizing the use of available bandwidth. The technology is used in ultra-high-frequency (UHF) cellular telephone systems in the 800-MHz and 1.9-GHz bands. http://searchtelecom.techtarget.com/definition/CDMA 5 votes 5 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
