One of the main advantages of CDMA is that dropouts occur only when the phone is at least twice as far from the base station. Thus, it is used in the rural areas where GSM cannot cover. Another advantage is its capacity; it has a very high spectral capacity that it can accommodate more users per MHz of bandwidth.

What is CDMA give advantage and disadvantage of that?
CDMA channel is not easily decodable hence it offers increases cellular communication securities. Call quality is better with more consistent sound as compared to GSM. Less interference due to hand off features reduces call dropping. Gives better coverage and needs few antenna sites and also consumes less power.
What are advantages of CDMA technology over GSM?
The data speed rate of GSM is 384 kbps using the EDGE data transmission technology. High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA) has a data transfer speed of up to 42 Mbps. CDMA on the other hand has a data speed rate of 2 Mbps employing EVDO technology. This means that the speed rate of CDMA is higher than GSM's.
