    CDMA is " spread spectrum (頻譜) " technology, which means that it spreads the information contained in a particular signal of interest over a much greater bandwidth (帶寬) than the original signal.
When implemented (實現(xiàn)) in a cellular telephone system, CDMA offers numerous benefits to the cellular operators and their subscribers (訂戶). Following is an overview of CDMA benefits:
