Multiplex Communication
In telecommunications and computer networking, multiplexing (sometimes contracted to muxing) is a method by which multiple Analog signal, analog or digital signals are combined into one signal over a shared medium. The aim is to share a scarce resource—a physical transmission medium. For example, in telecommunications, several telephone calls may be carried using one wire. Multiplexing originated in #Telegraphy, telegraphy in the 1870s, and is now widely applied in communications. In #Telephony, telephony, George Owen Squier is credited with the development of telephone carrier multiplexing in 1910. The multiplexed signal is transmitted over a communication channel such as a cable. The multiplexing divides the capacity of the communication channel into several logical channels, one for each message signal or data stream to be transferred. A reverse process, known as demultiplexing, extracts the original channels on the receiver end. A device that performs the multiplexing ...
