Communication Basics
•
Sender encodes (converts) his message.
•
Receiver decodes (translates) the
received message.
•
Message to be sent
•
Media or channel through which the
message travels (air, radio, TV, phone,
Internet, etc.)
•
Feedback (error checking)
3
Transmission Methods 1
•
Analog signals: continuous
–
Frequency
–
Amplitude
•
Digital signals: discrete
•
Modem (modulator/demodulator)
–
Dial
-
up connection
–
Bps (bit per second)
–
Baud (pulses per second) or modulation rate
–
Emulation software: check errors (parity bit)
4
Transmission Methods 2
•
Frequency (Hz), the number of times a
signal makes a complete cycle per
second. KHz, MHz, GHz
•
Bandwidth (bps) is ranges of frequencies.
The difference between the highest and
lowest frequency transmitted (or amount of
data transmitted) per second. Kbps, Mbps.
•
Wavelength: from long (low frequency) to
short (high frequency
—
UHF, cell phone).
5
Transmission Methods 3
•
Serial versus parallel transmission
•
Direction of transmission:
–
Simplex: transmitted in a single direction only
–
Half
-
duplex: one direction at a time
–
Full
-
duplex: both directions at the same time
•
Timing of transmission
–
Synchronous: blocks of data are transferred
–
Asynchronous: start and stop bits to
distinguish one byte from the others.

Transmission Methods 4
•
Circuit versus packet switching
–
Circuit switching establishes a connection
(physical path and circuit) that cannot be use
by others. PSTN (telephone network)
–
Packet switching sends data in a series of
packets and then assembles them in the
destination. Paul Baran, Donald Davies,
Leonard Kleinrock in the 1960s. PSDN
•
Wired (faster and more secure) versus
wireless network
7
Packet Switching of Internet
•
Data are split into small chunks, “packets”
•
Each packet has a header with information
about its sequence number and the
destination
•
Each packet may independently travel a
different routes to get to the destination
and be buffered and queued depending on
network traffic. No order in transmission.
•
The packet header at the destination is
stripped off and then packets are put
together (assemble) in the proper order.

Communication Media 1
•
Twisted
-
pair wire: RJ
-
45 (LAN) and RJ
-
11
•
Coaxial cable (coax) in the cable TV
industry. More expensive, faster, less
susceptible to interference (by shield
blocking electro
-
magnetic signals)
•
Optical fiber cable uses light pulse sent by
a laser device thought the cable. Super
-
fast and in turn expensive. Used for
backbone (telephone) network.

Communication Media 2
•
Radio frequency (RF) transmission
•
Infrared (IR) transmission
•
Cellular radio: cell, cellular tower, mobile
telephone switching office (MTSO). G3.
•
Microwave (“line
-
of
-
sight”) and comm.
satellite use microwave stations
(microwave antennas) and satellite dishes.
•
Global positioning systems (GPS), Wi
-
Fi,
Bluetooth
11
12
Communication Media 3
•
Telephone lines
–
Conventional dial
-
up connection
–
ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network)
ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line)
and DSL use higher frequency than voce
phone call on telephone lines.
•
Cable access (cable TV).
•
Satellite and fixed wireless access need
modems and transceivers.
13
14
Communication Media 4
•
Wired Ethernet (T1, T3)
•
Broadband over fiber (BoF)
•
Cellular broadband or mobile wireless
(laptops, smart phones)
–
Wi
-
Fi (Wireless Fidelity) is wireless
networking standards (wireless Ethernet)
–
IEEE 802.11
–
802.11g and 802.11n
15
Network (Physical) Topologies
•
Star network has a central hub (router)
connected by other devices.
•
Ring network: devices are connected from one
node to the next. One
-
way direction of
transmission. IBM’s Token Ring Network
•
Bus network has a central bus line to which
devices (nodes) are attached.
•
Mesh network: each device is connected to
multiple devices in a network.
•
Hybrid network combines above typologies.

Network Architecture
•
Client
-
server network
–
Most common architecture
–
Servers process clients’ request and provide services
to clients. Not particular machines but functions.
–
Depending on tasks, network, file, mail, Web, DNS,
printer, license servers and others are available.
–
A single machine can run more than one servers.
–
Uploading and downloading (polling & addressing)
•
Peer
-
to
-
peer (P2P) network
–
Direct access to other devices without servers.
–
Internet P2P computing for sharing resources online.
18
Types of Network 1
•
Sharing programs, data, and devices
•
Access to databases and better security
•
LAN (Local Area Network)
–
Covers small geographical area
–
Bridge for same types of networks
–
Router for different networks (layer 3)
–
Gateway, bridge + router + etc.
19
Types of Network 2
•
WAN (Wide Area Network)
•
MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)
•
VPN (Virtual Private Network) allows
remote and secure access to the network
(intranet) through encrypted “tunneling”
•
Intranets versus extranets: private
networks used for employees. Authorized
outsiders can access extranets.
