The development, research and construction of devices that speed up the process of interaction between various modules (for example, telemetry and remote control systems), and in general, hybrid communication systems of a digital city that include a variety of systems used in an Intelligent Building is an urgent problem. One of these devices presented in the article is the optimal multi–frequency modem developed. In addition to the developed modem, the article presents examples of the development of similar types of devices and systems by both Russian and foreign researchers. At the same time, the authors proved that the use of the proposed modem provides a gain in spectral and energy efficiency in comparison with analogues. The proposed approach can be used to organize high-speed data transmission over frequency-limited communication channels based on new wired technologies of the digital subscriber line standard, as well as wireless systems.
