The third section, involving Chapters 12 and 13, provides design aspects of a CDMA system, including a discussion of propagation models, link budgets, the transition from analog to CDMA operation, radio link capacity, facility engineering, border cells on a boundary between two service providers, and interfreqnency handoff.

If the minglers are unrelated-how the hydroids determine this is not known, but they appear to use a chemical-sensing mechanism - they may create a living barrier of special border cells. Or, one side may attempt a hostile takeover of the other, an effort that generally provokes an all-out war in which the troops at the front develop specialized organs armed with stinging cells.
