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.
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
