Note. 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.
B. This class includes elements and circuits forming subcombinations
having a utility unique to multiplexing such as rotary distributors
used as multiplexers, synchronizers used to control distribution
of multiplexed channels, bridge duplex circuits, resonant circuits
having a special utility in a frequency division multiplexing system. |
