  Class Definition for Class 370 - MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATIONS
The distinction between multiplexing and selective or telemetry is: in multiplexing, the information is unrestricted as to content, e.g., a teletype-writer which uses an alphabet to transmit unlimited information, whereas in selective or telemetry devices, the information is restricted as to content, e.g., a transducer measuring a single parameter.
Subject matter wherein (a) a multiplexed channel is uniquely identified and separated from other multiplexed channels by members of a pair of mathematical functions having a sum of products or having an integral that is zero or sometimes one under specified conditions, or (b) particular mathematical processes are used to achieve multiplexing techniques.
Subject matter wherein the multiplex repeater system has a primary and a backup or protection line, and the backup line is activated to route information data when the primary channel is malfunctioning.

  Multiplexing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Multiplexing (also MUXing) is a term used in electrical engineering to refer to a process where multiple sources of information are combined in order to ease the organization, conversion, and transportation of the material from one place to another.
In telecommunications, multiplexing is the combination of two or more higher-level channels into a single lower-level channel such that a reverse process, known as inverse multiplexing, demultiplexing, or demuxing, can extract the original channels.
Multiplexing can also be accomplished through alternating polarisation (horizontal/vertical or clockwise/counterclockwise) on each adjacent channel and satellite, however this is only applicable to wireless communications.

A data source is coupled, via an encoding circuit for time-division multiplex coding and signal compression, to a transmission (or storage) channel to which a data receiver comprising a decoding circuit is connectable.
In the receiver, the time-division multiplex encoded signal is derived from the signal received via, for example, the satellite connection and applied to a complementary decoding circuit which, with the aid of the synchronizing and identification information, produces a time-decompression for the information transmitted in time-compressed form.
An output of adder stage 23 is connected to the output of multiplex circuit 5 via a digital-to-analog converter 24 to which a clock pulse signal is applied at the clock pulse frequency fc.

 Digital terrestrial television in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This meant the BBC got a multiplex to themselves (Multiplex 1), ITV and Channel 4 shared Multiplex 2 (though 10% of the capacity was given to Teletext Limited) and Five and S4C shared Multiplex A. The remaining space (Muliplexes B, C and D) was then auctioned off.
The channels on Multiplexes B, C and D are those owned by the Freeview consortium and include the three Sky channels on the platform and the UKTV channels.
Furthermore, multiplexes can make use of statistical multiplexing at the MPEG video coder whereby the bitrate allocated to a channel within the multiplex can vary dynamically depending on how difficult it is to code the picture content at that precise time, and how much demand there is for bandwidth from other channels.

In analogue television we see this phenomena as 'ghosts', and these are caused by secondary signals arrive slightly later than normal, after having bounced off buildings, hills, bridges, etc., along the way.
Analog television in Australia has channels which are 7MHz wide (8MHz in Europe), and so fitting 2000 narrow 'finger' sub-channels into this space isn't all that difficult, and since they are all low-rate, multipath bounce doesn't really effect them unless the delay is substantial.
