Summary of TDM rules of Chapter 6 Channel: input Link : output Input bit duration (duration of input time slot) = 1/data rate (s) Output bit duration (duration of output time slot) = input bit duration/no. of input channels Frame duration = input bit duration (s) (s) Frame rate = any input rate / no. of carried bits by each channel (frames per second) Frame size = no. of input channels * no. of carried bits by each channel + added extra bits Output bit rate (transmission rate) = no. of input channels * fastest input rate = 1 / output bit duration (bits)
