Abstract
Described herein is an integrated communications system engineeredand installed to support the overseas design and manufacture of major body sections of a new commercial transport aircraft. The communications requirements include the transmission of voice, teletype, facsimile, and computer data. The system design approach was to digitize all input data including voice, utilizing a narrowband voice digitizer, and then combining all data onto a single dedicated channel ´for transmission. Also described is ttie use of statistical multiplexing for data compression and the demultiplexing and routing of computer data to several manufacturing plants in foreign countries.
