Frequency-division Multiplexing (FDM): A technique used in the telecommunications field that allows multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single communication line or medium by allocating a unique frequency range to each signal. This separation of the total bandwidth into various non-overlapping frequency sub-bands reduces interference and enhances communication reliability. FDM finds wide usage in radio and TV broadcasting, satellite and cable systems, as well as telephone networks.
