The combining of two or more signals into a single wave from which the signals can be individually recovered. Examples include time division multiplexing and frequency division multiplexing

  • Frequency division multiplexing - or FDM, a form of signal multiplexing that involves assigning non-overlapping frequency ranges to different signals
  • Multiplexing equipment - equipment that can combine or divide multiple signals for transmittal
  • OFDM - orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing, the use, by a single transmitter, of a set of frequency multiplexed signals with the exact minimal amount of frequency spacing to prevent interference
  • Time division multiplexing - or TDM, a type of digital multiplexing in which two or more streams of information are transmitted at what seems to be the same moment, but that take turns on that channel
