BXE ASSIGNMENT NO. 6

1.Explain the needs of communication system.


 The best forms of electronic communication, such as radio, television and Internet have increased our
ability to share information. Today they form the major part of our lives.
 The electronic communication made it possible for we to communicate almost any time and anvwhere.
 Number of electronic communication channels such as electronic mail (Email), instant messaging, text
messaging, post-cast (it is digital media file that is distributed over the Internet and downloaded on
portable media players and personal computers), blogs enable everyone to exchange information rapidly
and efficiently.
 Social networking sites such as facebook, orkut, twitter have become some of the key online sources and
information shearing tools.
 In todays world every one is so it is hard to imagine living without the knowledge and information that
arrive from around the world by electronic communication.

2. Explain in detail block diagram of communication system.

The elements of communication system are as follows :

 Information
 Communication channel or medium
 Noise
 Receiver
i. Information : The communication systems communicate messages. They may contain human voice,
picture, code, data, music and their combinations.
ii. Transmitter : The transmitter is a collection of electronic circuits designed to convert the information into
a signal suitable for transmission over a given communication medium.
iii. Communication channel The communication channel is the medium by which the electronic signal is
transmitted from one place to another. The communication medium can be a pair of conducting wire,
coaxial cable, optical fibre cable or free space.
iv. Noise: is random, undesirable electric energy that enters the communication system via the and interferes
with the transmitted message. Some noise is also produced in the receiver. one of the serious problems of
electronic communication. It cannot be completely eliminated. I there are ways to deal with noise, and
reduce the possibility of degradation of signal due to noise.
v. Receiver A receiver is a collection of electronic circuits designed to convert the signal back to the original
information. It consists of amplifier, detector, mixer, oscillator, transducer and so on.
3.State and compare various modes of transmission.

1.Simplex:

a. In simplex mode, data transmission is unidirectional and thus the information can be sent only in one direction.

b. Simplex lines are also called receiver-only, transmit-only, or one-way-only lines.

c. A radio station usually sends signals to the audience- but neve radio station is an example of simplex mode of
transmission.

2. Half duplex

a.In half duplex mode, data can be transmitted in both directions on a signal carrier but not at the same
Transmitter -time.

b. Half duplex lines are also called one-way-alternate or either-way lines.

c . Walkie-talkie is a typical example of half duplex mode of transmission.

3. Full duplex:

a. In full duplex mode, data can be transmitted in both directions simultaneously, but they must be between the
same stations.

b. Full duplex lines are also called twoway-simultaneous, duplex, or both-way lines.

c. A local telephone call is an example duplex transmission mode.

4. Explain wired and wireless communication.

a. Wireless communication: As the name indicates, there is no wire or any such of electromagnetic waves.
Wireless communication takes place through air or right from 10 kHz up to 100 GHz are transmitted using
wireless communication . Such communication is called radio communication.
b. Wire/wireline communication: wire/wireline communication, communication takes place through wire
pairs or coaxial cables. The telephone system is an example of wire or wireline communication.Such
communication is also called line communication.

5. Write short note on twisted pair cables.

Twisted Pair Cable : Twisted pair cabling is a form of wiring in which two conductors are wound together for the
purposes of cancelling out electromagnetic interference from external sources and crosstalk from neighbouring
wires.

Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)

• UTP cables are not shielded. This lack of shielding results in a high degree of flexibility as well as rugged
durability.

• UTP cables are found in many ethernet networks and telephone systems.

Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)


• Twisted pair cables are often shielded to prevent electromagnetic interference. Because the shielding is made of
metal, it also serves as a ground.

• This shielding can be applied to individual pairs or to the collection of pairs. When shielding is applied to the
collection of pairs, this is referred to as screening.

• They are used in token ring networks.

Advantages of twisted-pair cables

High availability

• Low cost of installation a Low cost for local moves, adds and changes in places.

Disadvantages of twisted-pair cables

 They provide limited frequency response about I. MHz


 Limited data rate - The longer a signal has to travel over twisted-pair, the lower the data rate.
 Short distances are required between repeaters.
 Twisted pairs are highly susceptible to signal interference such as EMI and RFI.
 Power loss due to conduction and radiation.

Applications:

A twisted pair cables are used in following applications :

1. Data networks for short and medium length connections


2. Telephone systems
3. Ethernet and ring networks
4. Local area networks
5. Internet Services Digital Network (ISDN).
