A multiple access communications system and method using Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) comprises coding information signals with CDMA codewords to be transmitted over a common frequency spectrum, time compressing the CDMA codewords for transmission only during allocated timeslots, activating a receiver only during the allocated timeslots to receive and decompress the time compressed CDMA codewords, and decoding the decompressed CDMA codewords to recover the information signals.
