Time Division Multiplexing. A technique for transmitting multiple voice, data, or video signals simultaneously over the same transmission medium. TDM is a digital technique that interleaves groups of bits from each signal, one after another. Each group is assigned its own "time slot" and can be identified and extracted at the receiving end. See also time slot.
Acronym for time division multiplexing; this digital multiplexing derives two or more apparently simultaneous channels from one bit stream by interleaving pulses representing bits from different channels, such as multiple voice channels from a T1 pipe in a VoIP system. An asset of TDM is its flexibility, allowing for a varying number of signals being sent along the line, constantly adjusting the time intervals to make optimum use of the available bandwidth.

Time Division Multiplexing. Time Division Multiplexing exists as a transmission facility which is shared in time (as opposed to frequency). For example, the signals from several different sources share one single channel or a bus. This is done by using the bus or channel in successive time slots. It uses a discrete time slot or interval and assigns it to each signal source.
