text: # Bit-stream transmission
  
  In telecommunication, the term bit-stream transmission has the following meanings:
  
  1. In bit-oriented systems, the transmission of bit strings.
  
  2. In character-oriented systems, the transmission of bit streams that represent characters.
  
  In bit-stream transmission, the bits usually occur at fixed time intervals, start and stop signals are not used, and the bit patterns follow each other in sequence without interruption.
