Abstract

Low rate data and middle rate data are time division multiplexed independently according to their rates by a time division multiplexer so that their rates match the rate of high rate data which are not passed through the time division multiplexer. Subsequently, the entire data are converted into biorthogonal signals by biorthogonal signal generators (BORTs), and code division multiplexed by a code division multiplexer. The code division multiplexed signal undergoes modulation by a spreading modulator and a carrier modulator, and transmitted.
