Channel optimization system
First Claim
1. A channel optimization system for use with a communications channel, comprising:
- an assorter configured to receive first and second signals having disparate transmission characteristics and select one of said first and second signals; and
a translator, coupled to said assorter, configured to encode said selected one of said first and second signals into a symbol representation as a function of a transmission characteristic associated therewith.

Abstract
A channel optimization system for use with a communications channel and method of separating and encoding signals associated with the communications channel. In one embodiment, the channel optimization system includes an assorter that receives first and second signals having disparate transmission characteristics and selects one of the first and second signals. The channel optimization system also includes a translator, coupled to the assorter, that encodes the selected one of the first and second signals into a symbol representation as a function of a transmission characteristic associated therewith.

22. A transmitter for use with a communications channel of a telecommunications network that transmits first and second signals having disparate transmission characteristics, comprising:
-
a bit merge and framer subsystem that merges said first and second signals into a bit stream;
a bit-to-symbol mapping subsystem, coupled to said bit merge and framer subsystem, including;
an assorter that receives first and second signals and selects one of said first and second signals, and a translator, coupled to said assorter, that encodes said selected one of said first and second signals into a symbol representation as a function of a transmission characteristic associated therewith; and
a modulator, coupled to said bit-to-symbol mapping subsystem, that modulates said symbol representation for insertion on to said communications channel. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
