Statistical Time Division Multiplexing (STDM)

  • A statistical multiplexor transmits data only from active workstations.
  • If a workstation is not active, no space is wasted in the multiplexed stream.

Frame Creation

  • The multiplexor creates a frame containing data from active workstations.
  • Each piece of data includes an address for identification.
  • If data size varies, the length of the data must also be included.

If the data is of variable size, a length is also included invert_B
