A signal editing and processing technique for converting a plurality of continuous signals, especially long term continuous audio signals respectively relating to short term still picture signals, to a transmitting signal in which signal transmission periods and pause periods are provided, having an integer ratio of time duration with each other, wherein other signals, especially the picture signals, should be transmitted. All continuous signals are sequentially converted to digital signals addressed in accordance with relevant continuous signals, and once stored in arbitrary positions of a memory, and then read out in a given multiplexed sequence corresponding to the transmission periods of the transmitting signal. The read out multiplexed digital signals are sequentially stored in another memory, and then read out with a given high speed equal to that of the signal transmission. The digital signals read out with the high speed are stored in still another memory, and then read out repeatedly to form the transmitting signal.

Signal editing and processing apparatus

A transmission system for transmitting a plurality of information signals having arbitrary time lengths through a plurality of transmission channels, wherein at a transmitter end said plurality of information signals are allotted to said plurality of transmission channels in such a manner that in each transmission channel an information signal is followed by other information signal and a control signal comprising an index of an information composed of one or more information signals, a transmission channel or channels through which said one or more information signals are transmitted and one or more timings of transition of said one or more information signals is transmitted in addition to said information signals and at a receiver end a desired information signal is selectively extracted and reproduced under the control of said control signal.

Signal transmission system for transmitting a plurality of information

A signal transmission system for transmitting programed information such as a programed instruction comprising at a transmitter end circuitry for producing a number of program materials and a control signal which is used at a receiver end to control the manner of sequentially connecting program materials in accordance with a response input of a student to construct at least one significant program. The system comprises at the receiver end circuitry for detecting the control signal, circuitry for extracting desired program materials in a desired sequence with the aid of the control signal in accordance with the response input of the student and apparatus for displaying the extracted desired program materials.

Signal transmission system for transmitting programed information such

A multiplex signal transmission system in which a plurality of information signals, having respectively arbitrary time durations and being arranged in time-serial form, are sequentially divided into a plurality of signal portions by a predetermined time period, said signal portions being successively allocated in time-parallel form to a plurality of transmission channels, each of which has a time duration of said predetermined time period, and being transmitted repeatedly through respectively allocated channels every said time duration, comprises a channel shift means for shifting sequentially the channel allocation of said signal portions at predetermined time periods, and a signal transmitting means for transmitting in time-parallel form said signal portions derived from said channel shift means repeatedly through every preceding channels. Consequently, the transmission line can be efficiently utilized in such a way that, at the sending end, a plurality of information signals having respectively arbitrary time durations are folded into a plurality of transmission channels having given time periods, and besides that, at the receiving end, once a portion of any desired information signal is caught in a corresponding channel, successive signal portions can be derived sequentially from the same channel every said given time periods. Hence, a channel selecting means of a receiver in this system can be simplified.
