Digital Signal Combining for Conference Calling
Signals combined with minimal noise by use of sums in read-only memories. Signals from subscribers A and B digitized, transmitted, and combined by addressing ROM. Combining operation electronic equivalent of looking up value of function of two variables in mathematical table. Combined digitized signal transmitted, converted to analog form, and delivered to subscriber C. System intended especially for combining number of separate audio signals into one signal for retransmission, as in telephone conference calling.
