While many scientists agree that the classical frequency division multiple access technique for communicating is a de-facto standard, new generations of communications devices require more efficient techniques such as the time division multiple access technology. This paper identifies the methods of using time division multiple access as an alternative to the original frequency division transmission technique. The paper clarifies the principle of multiple access technologies, and compares the old method with the newest one. This study points out the ways of replacing the frequency division with the time division multiple access, and identifies the main obstacles that might be faced.
