Start-stop Transmission

In telecommunication, the term start-stop transmission has the following meanings:

Asynchronous transmission

Asynchronous transmission in which a start pulse and a stop pulse are used for each symbol.

Signaling

Signaling in which each group of code elements corresponding to an alphanumeric character is preceded by a start signal that serves to prepare the receiving mechanism for the reception and registration of a character, and followed by a stop signal that serves to bring the receiving mechanism to rest in preparation for the reception of the next character.
