TDMA vs CDMA Part 2:CDMA Alternative Emerges
While the deployment and optimization of TDMA was going on, a new technology known as CDMA emerged as an alternative as it matured in the standards process and research labs of North America. So while Bell Mobility was faced with the delay required for the industry to redesign the TDMA technology, it performed theoretical and field trial evaluations of the CDMA technology. In the end, Bell Mobility concluded that a major change to introduce CDMA technology was preferable to continuing to incrementally improve the old TDMA technology. As a result of its extensive evaluation, Bell Mobility believed that TDMA could be made to work eventually, but it would never be able to match the quality, capacity or functionality advantages of CDMA.

Since launching CDMA digital PCS technology in 1997, Bell Mobility has been very happy with the response from its customer base to CDMA call quality and the ability to add new enhanced services to its portfolio.

Key Factors Favor CDMA
Five key factors helped Bell Mobility conclude that CDMA was the appropriate technology to deliver on the evolving needs of its customers while allowing Bell Mobility to meet its own goals.
