FDMA, or frequency-division multiple access, is the oldest and most important of the three main ways for multiple radiotransmitters to share the radio spectrum. The other two methods are Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA).
In FDMA, each transmitter is assigned a distinct frequency channel so that receivers can discriminate among them by tuning to the desired channel.
TDMA and CDMA are always used in combination with FDMA, i.e., a given frequency channel may be used for either TDMA or CDMA independently of signals on other frequency channels. (Ultra-wideband is arguably an exception, as it uses essentially all of the usable radio spectrum in one location.)

Single Channel Per Carrier (SCPC) is an FDMA scheme in which the input data stream is used to modulate an RF (radio frequency) carrier and assign dedicated carrier frequency to each client.
When FDMA is combined with TDMA each channel is multiplied into three.
FDMA, the Frequency Division Multiple Access, is frequency based channel multiplexing technique.
