process of changing the digit rate of a digital signal in a controlled manner without loss or mutilation of information
Note 1 to entry: Pulse stuffing is usually employed as an adjunct to digital multiplexing to enable the multiplexing to be applied to tributary channels that are not synchronized to the multiplexer. Where this is done, the original signal of each channel is independently justified.
Note 2 to entry: Associated verbs are “to stuff” and “to justify”.
