AI Thread Summary
Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) allows multiple electrical signals of different frequencies to be transmitted over a single wire by dividing the frequency spectrum into distinct channels. The implementation of FDM in hardware typically involves using filters and modulators to separate and combine signals. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an advanced form of FDM that utilizes orthogonal carriers to improve efficiency and reduce interference. Resources like the provided tutorial explain the technical details of OFDM's implementation. Understanding these methods is crucial for effective signal transmission in various communication systems.

how do we transfer many electrical signals of different frequency over a wire?

i know its called frequency division mutiplexing, but i want to know how it is implemeted on hardware.

There is a better thing called, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, your ADSL.

Take a look at this. It explains in-depth the implementation of such division. The only difference between this one and you mentioned is that carriers are orthogonal to each other.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
