1.In telecommunications and computer networks, multiplexing (sometimes contracted to muxing) is a method by which multiple analog or digital signals are combined into one signal over a shared medium. The multiplexed signal is transmitted over a communication channel such as a cable.

2.The advantage of multiplexing is that we can transmit a large number of signals to a single medium. This channel can be a physical medium like a coaxial, metallic conductor or a wireless link and will have to handle multiple signals at a time. Thus the cost of transmission can be reduced.

1.answe:Multiplexing is a technique used to combine and send the multiple data streams over a single medium. The process of combining the data streams is known as multiplexing and hardware used for multiplexing is known as a multiplexer. ... Multiplexing follows many-to-one, i.e., n input lines and one output line.

1.
Multiplexing (or muxing) is a way of sending multiple signals or streams of information over a communications link at the same time in the form of a single, complex signal; the receiver recovers the separate signals, a process called demultiplexing (or demuxing).
2.
The advantages of multiplexing are:
(i)It boost the economic scalability of networks, as it lowers both the cost and the time needed for the deployment of the physical medium, as a single medium can serve multiple signals / subscribers / applications.
(ii)It boosts the technical efficiency of the medium, as it exploits resources that a single signal would leave idle.
