Statistical multiple access technique dynamically allocates bandwidth to users based on their need and usage patterns. This technique allows efficient use of available bandwidth and ensures that the scarce resource is utilized optimally. TDM and FDM techniques divide the bandwidth into fixed time or frequency slots, respectively, and allocate them to users in a predetermined manner, which may not be optimal for varying usage patterns. Circuit switching allocates a dedicated circuit to a user for the entire duration of the communication, which may lead to inefficient use of bandwidth when the user is not actively transmitting data. Therefore, statistical multiple access is the most suitable choice for dynamically allocating bandwidth based on application need.
