MULTIPLEXER AND MULTIPLEXING METHOD Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC H04N7/52 H04L27/32 H04J13/00 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: described is a multiplexer and a multiplexing method, wherein the method includes adaptively identifying and buffering an incoming code stream; according to the type of the incoming code stream, extracting multiplexing sub-frames in the incoming multiplexing frame from the buffered incoming code stream or constructing the multiplexing sub-frames based on incoming audio/video data; according to service management configuration information, performing a service allocation on the multiplexing sub-frames, allocating the multiplexing sub-frames to corresponding multiplexing frames and storing them in a given buffer; and obtaining the multiplexing sub-frames from said given buffer, constructing the multiplexing frame according to multiplexing configuration information and converting the generated multiplexing frame to a multiplexing code stream for outputting.

EFFECT: reduced risk of error code or malfunction due to combined use of a plurality of multiplexers since a one-piece device is used.
