Abstract: A digital transmission system includes at least a client device and a transmission device, and rate-adjusts the client signal transmitted from the client device to the transmission device before accommodating/multiplexing the signal in a frame. The transmission device includes a rate adjusting unit and a frame processing unit. The rate adjusting unit encapsulates the client signal by using a predetermined frame structure, inserts an idle pattern if necessary, and performs rate adjustment into the bit rate which can be contained in the frame. The frame processing unit accommodates/multiplexes the signal after the rate adjustment. The digital transmission system inserts a bit string of the client signal directly in a payload area of the digital frame, or accommodates and multiplexes it. Alternatively, a specific pattern is accommodated in the payload area, or accommodated and multiplexed after performing a reversible digital signal processing.
