TDM In the Time Division Multiplex Systems a common carrier is shared to transmit multiple messages (to multiple receivers) by time sharing the carrier between the message sources.
TDMA Time Division Multiplex Access. When multiple trans-mitters are using a single carrier to transmit to a sin-gle receiver, the carrier is time shared between each of the transmitters,so the multiple messages are not garbled at the receiver.
TDOP Time Dilution of Precision. A term used to describe the error introduced by variances in the calculated time.
