TLDR
In this paper, three types of transmitters which have three carriers whose deviation is very small compared with the band with of a channel are used in the transmitter network to control the problem of fading.
Abstract
In this system in which the information signals to be transmitted are converted into the digital form, transmission is done via a frequency-division multiplexer which so transmit the bits of the information signals in parallel that the duration of the bits transmitted through the channels of the multiplexer is longer than double the difference in propagation time between two carriers obtained from the two transmitters which are nearest in the receiving zone, where the said carriers have levels which are near to one another. This solves the problem of overlap between the information signals. To control the problem of fading, three types of transmitters which have three carriers whose deviation is very small compared with the bandwith of a channel are used in the transmitter network.
