MUX (Multiplex)
In analog television broadcasting a transmission channel (e.g. UHF
channel 42) has only one TV channel (program) or service. In digital
terrestrial television broadcasting, a transmission channel (e.g. UHF
channel 42) is divided into different sections that can have more than
one TV channel (program) or service. Such a transmission channel
used for digital terrestrial broadcasts is called a MUX.

PID
(Video, Audio, PCR)
A digital signal is divided into so called packages (as suit cases on a
transport belt). Each packet holds certain information for Video, Audio,
timing and completeness of the packet stream so that the receiver can
compose a distortion free signal for your TV or radio.

QAM
Quadrature Amplitude Modulation is a technique where the signal is
polarized and modulated in order to get more TV or Radio channels into
a physical VHF or UHF channel.
