Read the paragraph and answer the questions to 71 – 75:
Multiplexing is the sending of separate signals together, over the same cable or bearer simultaneously without interference. Time division multiplex is a method of interleaving in the time domain pulses belonging to different transmissions. These pulses are generally narrow and separation between successive pulses is rather wide. That being the case it is possible, provided the two ends of a link are synchronized, to use the wide spaces for pulses belonging to other transmissions. Frequency division multiplexing concerns itself with combining continuous signals. It may be thought of as an outgrowth of independent side band transmission on a much enlarged scale. As will see 12 or 16 channels are combined into a group, 5 groups into a subgroup. Each group and subgroup is then sent as a whole unit one microwave link cable or other broadband system. Continental broadband systems are then treated followed by coaxial cables, fibre optic cable, microwave links and trope scatter systems.
