Abstract
A multiplexing process in an asynchronous transfer mode telecommunication network consists in placing a payload in a series of cells supporting the same logical channel a series of data containers supporting the same logical channel, each container including a load that is a quantity of data greater than the payload of each cell. In one preferred embodiment the payload of each container is composite. It includes conventional synchronous digital channel samples and data micropackets each of which has a label indicating a logical channel and the length of the packet. Applications include ATM telecommunication networks.
