Abstract
A packet transmission system wherein a packet can be transmitted at a high rate over a long transmission distance using a transmission medium which is economical and easy to handle. Under the control of a transmission controller, a separating circuit divides a packet of a packet signal into six payloads to make six transmission frames and adds a start delimiter SD and an end delimiter ED to the first and last transmission frames, and four transmitters send out the six transmission frames in accordance with sequence numbers at a rate at which the signal can be transmitted by way of time division transmission lines. Under the control of a reception controller, four receivers receive the transmission frames, and a restoring circuit assembles the transmission frames back into the original packet signal in accordance with the sequence numbers and the delimiter information.
