Since I am not a tech person I will try to use an allegory. The figures used are not accurate but will good enough for an allegory. There is one phone line coming into a house. It handles voice * data but not at the same time. CDMA allows them both at the same time. Much better than regular line but is limited to number of customers which I will name switching base. BCDMA does the same thing on either wireless or line service. The difference is the bandwidth maximum the system will handle. the broadband handles up to 5 times the transmission of CDMA Making it far easier to install. TDMA is time delay multiple access. CDMA is code delay multiple access. Just as an ISDN line will give you separate phone & data CDMA will add video with a faster transmission speed keeping quality with speed. Doubt this will help but you can chart verify 10Q 10K reports. I know this is very crude but it will give you and idea. Perhaps someone will read this and correct me if this is wrong. I sure do not claim to know how to pick winners. You just asked me what I was holding. There are many locations on the net that give tech info on communications so you might run a search for both types.
