In a television system, a multiplexing system permits the simultaneous transmission of two or more images with apparent full resolution, but without a corresponding increase in required transmission bandwidth. The television transmission uses the method of interleaving successive scan lines from different picture sources, such as two TV cameras, these sources being synchronized by common horizontal and vertical synchronization signals.
