Multiplex switching is disclosed for readily multiplexing and switching packet data without causing a delay. Bit widths of packets supplied from a plurality of input channels are unified to a previously set bit width. The packets unified in bit width are synchronized among the plurality of input channels. The synchronized packets are spread by multiplying them by orthogonal codes based on the input channels. The spread packets are multiplexed, and multiplexed packets are multiplied respectively by orthogonal codes for switching according to the input channels on which the packets delivered to output channels have been supplied, to reconstruct the packets supplied from the input channels. The packets are then delivered to the output channels. |
