Multiplexing: A technique used in data communication for combining multiple signals or streams of information onto a single transmission path. The objective is to facilitate efficient data transmission and reduce the need for multiple channels. Techniques like Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM), Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), or Code Division Multiplexing (CDM) are used depending on the nature of the data and communication system. This process plays a significant role in enhancing the capacity and managing the complexity of data transmissions.
