A TDMA system uses 25 MHz for the forward link, which is broken into radio channels of 200 kHz. If 8 speech channels are supported on a single radio channel, how many simultaneous users can be accommodated?
A
25
B
200
C
1600
D
1000
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: For a TDMA system that uses 25 MHz for the forward link, which is broken into radio channels of 200 kHz. If 8 speech channels are supported on a single radio channel, 1000 simultaneous users can be accommodated as N = (25 MHz)/(200 kHz/8).

Detailed explanation-2: -If 8 speech channels are supported on a single radio channel and assume that there are no guard band is applied, find the number of simultaneous users that can be accommodated in GSM. [Answer:1000]

Detailed explanation-3: -In TDMA-based systems, guard times of 30-50 microseconds between time slots are commonly used. Synchronization is also necessary in TDMA due to the burst mode of data transmission.
