Time Division Multiple Access: Tdma-Pmp

TDMA-PMP is a telecommunications system that uses time division multiple access and a point-to-multipoint architecture. It connects a base station unit to up to 32 remote station units within a 30km radius, providing telephone service to rural areas. Each remote station can serve 8-32 subscribers for a total network capacity of 296 users. The system dynamically allocates time slots to allow flexible bandwidth distribution and easy adaptation to changing traffic patterns between base and remote stations. It provides a low-cost solution for rural connectivity using radio transmission instead of cables.

Time Division Multiple Access

Point to Multi-Point

Time Division Multiple Access Point to Multi-Point (TDMA-PMP) combines the best of Switching and
Transmission technologies. The product is particularly suited for sparsely populated areas with
geographically dispersed clusters of customers aspiring for telecom facilities. It operates in L Band with line-
of-site requirement between a Base Station Unit (BSU) and a number of Remote Station Units (RSUs). The
equipment has standard PSTN interfaces, which facilitate rapid deployment. TDMA-PMP is designed to
operate in a non-air-conditioned environment.

A TDMA - PMP network consists of a BSU connected over radio to a maximum of 32 RSUs located within a
radius of less than 30 kilometers. Each RSU in turn caters to a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 32 (in steps
of 8) wired subscribers.
In order to meet the GOS (Grade of Service) requirements, a maximum of 256 subscribers are terminated
on the RSUs having access to the BSU over 27 dynamically allocated time slots on radio channels. In
addition, 40 wired subscribers can also be directly connected to the BSU, thus providing for a total capacity
of 296 subscribers. Intra RSU calls do not occupy any time slot towards the BSU. The subscribers status and
billing information is sent to the BSU over a shared signaling time slot.

The C-DOT TDMA- PMP is a cost effective communication system best suited to rural areas with provision for
phased growth of subscribers with short setup time. The system costs are low primarily because it uses radio
instead of cables for transmission. Quick set up time are also ensured.

C-DOT TDMA-PMP’s inherently fault tolerant system reduces the need for constant vigil. This reinforces its
suitability for rural applications in developing countries where trained manpower, un-interrupted power
supplies and proper logistics are usually limited. Even in cases of fault occurrence automatic diagnostics
provided within the system ensure its immediate detection.

The system provides flexibility through dynamic allocation of 27 time slots for communication between BSU
and RSUs. It can easily adapt to varying traffic amongst various RSUs between the RSUs and BSU. In order
to balance the traffic not more than 8 subscribers of an RSU can occupy time slots towards the BSU
