Abstract
The transmission system comprises a transmitter (10) and a receiver (14). The transmitter (10) can transmit a number of multiplex signals (12) to the receiver (14). The receiver (14) comprises storage means (20) for storing data sections included in the multiplex signals (12) in dependence on information present in the multiplex signals (12). The information for the complete set of multiplex signals (12) is contained in a single information section in at least one of the multiplex signals (12).
