This document discusses various techniques for demultiplexing signals that were previously multiplexed together. It describes four main demultiplexing techniques: space-division demultiplexing retrieves signals multiplexed in different propagation paths using signal processing. Frequency-division demultiplexing combines the multiplexed signal with a reverse frequency pattern to separate signals. Time-division demultiplexing synchronizes the timing of signals to retrieve them based on their timing during multiplexing. Code-division demultiplexing asynchronously retrieves signals by decoding their unique coded sequences used during multiplexing.

TITLE: DEMULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUES
Demultiplexing is a means of retrieving the individual signals previously multiplexed
so that they can be used separately. Generally, a group of signals multiplexed by a multiplexing technique would be demultiplexed using a corresponding demultiplexing technique. Therefore, similar to multiplexing techniques, the group of demultiplexing technologies may be divided into; space division demultiplexing, frequency division demultiplexing, time division demultiplexing, and code division demultiplexing.
Space-division Demultiplexing Technique
This method is used to retrieve signals that were space-division multiplexed. In
space-division multiplexing (SDM), multiplexed signals are propagated with different multipath propagation signatures. During demultiplexing, with the aid of digital signal processing techniques, it is possible to separate the different signals that were previously multiplexed by use of their different multipath propagation signature.
Frequency-division Demultiplexing Technique
In this method, the FDM multiplexed signal received is combined in a reverse
pattern to a frequency (fc) of same magnitude as the carrier frequency (fc) that was used in multiplexing the original signal (i.e. group of signal that was multiplexed, 0.3 – 3.4, in this case). An illustration is shown in the figure below. This method is inherently an analogue technology. 2

demultiplexing.
Time-division Demultiplexing Technique
Time-division demultiplexing is used to retrieve signals multiplexed using TDM
multiplexing technique. In this method, the timing of the original signal (i.e. signal that was multiplexed) during multiplexing is synchronized to its timing during demultiplexing. This implies that in a case of ATDM, the appropriate channel is retrieved. A better description is detailed using the set of figures that follow.

Code-division Demultiplexing Technique
Code-division demultiplexing technique is employed with CDM (Code-division
Multiplexing). Under this condition, the transmitted signals are retrieved asynchronously. Asynchronous retrieval is possible because the various original signals are a coded channel-specific sequence of code.
