Can two devices transmit at exactly the same time with time splitting?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

From a human perspective, yes, that's exactly what it does

If you want to get pedantic about the technical details, it's not time splitting if you're not splitting the time...

Technically speaking, isn’t differentiating between any two things pedantic? For example the moon, and chocolate, both are things. If you don’t want to get pedantic about it.

What I mean is if you don't slice time into slots, you're not using time slicing. It doesn't make sense to talk about time slicing at all anymore

Two devices can transmit at the same time with all sorts of setups, even on the same frequency. And it's not inaccurate to describe time slicing as "a method to allow multiple devices to transmit and receive simultaneously"

The question isn't valid. Being truly pedantic would be pointing out that any number of devices can transmit at the same time, you didn't say the messages would be received
