Development of a 60-channel FDM-TDM transmultiplexer
The main objective of this paper is to describe and discuss the use of the Fast Hartley Transform (FHT) in the digital transmultiplexer (TMUX) design and implementation process. A 60 channel TMUX has been simulated using a reformulation of an algorithm including the FHT, which was programmed using the OCCAM2 language; performance and results of this approach are shown in this paper.
