What Are The Disadvantages Of Fdma?

1.	What Are The Disadvantages Of Fdma?
Answer» It does not DIFFER significantly from analog systems; improving the capacity depends on the signal-to-interference reduction, or a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The maximum flow rate PER channel is fixed and SMALL. Guard bands lead to a WASTE of capacity. Hardware implies narrowband filters, which cannot be REALIZED in VLSI and therefore increases the cost.
