This document provides a comparison table of various mobile communication technologies including FDMA, TDMA, W-CDMA, CDMA-IS-95, CDMA-IS-2000, OFDM, SSMA, and SDMA. The table compares these technologies across parameters such as features, technology, generation, encoding, year of first use, roaming capabilities, interference levels, signal quality, frequency utilization, call density, handoff types, and ability to perform voice and data communications simultaneously. SSMA is described as a tool to automate database migration from databases like Microsoft Access, DB2, MySQL, Oracle and Sybase to Microsoft SQL Server.

Very low
density
0.2 MHz = 8
timeslots. Each
timeslot can hold up to
2 calls (4 calls with
VAMOS) through
interleaving.
5 MHz = 2 Mbit/s.
42Mbit/s for HSPA+.
Each call uses 1.8-12
kbit/s depending on
chosen quality and
audio complexity.
