transmitted.
Is more robust against frequency selective fading
and ISI due to multipath propagation.
Uses soft handoff that improves quality.
Uses elaborated power control that saves battery
life for MS.
Provides better privacy.
Disadvantages of CDMA

TDMA/FDMA.
Power control in CDMA is more complicated.
The bandwidth obtained by each user is limited
due to spread spectrum. (The signal will occupy a
large bandwidth but the actual spectrum is only a
fraction of it. It is fine for voice and low data speed
applications but not for 4G.)

Power control is essential because if there were no power
control the MS that were very close to the BS would
generate very strong signal and thus very large interference.
Good power control reduces the power emitted by an MS
that is close to the BS. Thus the noise levels generated by
all MSs will be comparable.
This in turn reduces power consumption of an MS, and low
power consumption is an important feature for mobile
devices.
