Frequency Modulation (FM)

-Signal amplitude can be easily affected by the environment. -Signal frequency, however, is quite stable. -In FM, frequency changes according to the signal.

Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)

Medium expensive; spans a major city or a metroplex

Wide Area Network (WAN)

Most expensive; spans sites in multiple cities

Demodulation

Recreating the low-frequency signal from the high frequency signal.

Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)

High-speed data communication services over a local loop

Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM)

How can the data rate be increased further -Combine amplitude modulation and phase modulation at the same time. (ASK + PSK) -QAM is also used with dialup modems as a way to maximize the rate at which data can be sent

Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM)

What are they: FDM in optical fiber How do they work: -Prism: multiplexing and demultiplexing device -a multiplexor: combines beams of light of various wavelengths into a single beam -a demultiplexor: separate a single beam into beams with different wavelengths.

Demultiplexing

Separating a combined stream back into individual streams

Amplitude Modulation (AM)

The amplitude of a carrier is modified in proportion to the meaningful signal. -The frequency of the carrier is fixed. -The carrier continues oscillating at a fixed frequency, but the amplitude of the carrier signal is modified

Statistical TDM

-Also called asynchronous TDM Eliminating unused slots Statistical TDM takes less time to send the same amount of data -Extra overhead ID of the receiver in each slot.

Bus Topology

-Bus topology usually consists of a single cable to which computers are attached. -The ends of a bus network must be terminated. >Preventing electrical signals from reflecting back along the bus. -All computers attach directly to the cable. >Any computer attached to a bus can send data to any other computer attached. >Any computer can receive the signal. -The computers attached to a bus network must coordinate >to ensure that only one computer sends a signal at any time

PSK

Data communications systems often use phase shifting keying to send more bits. -PSK changes the phase of the carrier wave abruptly. -Each such change is called a phase shift -The smaller a phase shift is, the easier to be interfered or distorted. -In theory, it is possible to increase the data rate by increasing the range of phase shifts

Cable Modem VS. DSL

Speed -Usually cable modem is better than DSL. -FiOS and U-Verse have changed the game. Availability -In US, cable is more popular. -Outside US, DSLs dominate. Installation -Cable model and regular DSL. -VDSL, HDSL are more complicated than cable modem. Security -Cable < DSL

Use of an FM Radio Channel_FDM

-200 kHz -Usually divided the range of frequencies into multiple carriers. -Sub-channels have different purposes. >Increase the data rate >Increase immunity/reliability to interference -High data rate (전송속도) >Each carrier for different piece of information. -High reliability >Each carrier for the same piece of information.

Packet switching

-A packet switching system requires a sender to divide each message into blocks of data that are known as packets the size of a packet varies each packet switching technology defines a maximum packet size -One of the chief advantages of packet switching is the lower cost because of sharing a connection.

CDM 2

-A sender is assigned a vector, chip sequence, that is orthogonal to all other senders' chip sequences. -Information from this sender (digitized voice) is processed with this vector. -The processed information from all senders are added up together and transmitted through the same medium and at the same time. -Only the information sent by the sender can be extracted because of the use of orthogonal vectors. -Information cannot be intercepted by others.

FSK and ASK

-Amplitude shift keying and frequency shift keying are NOT efficient. -Require at least one cycle of a carrier wave. >Fewer bits in each cycle. -Must capture the amplitude or frequency information of the carrier Require at least one cycle of a carrier wave. -Transmission capacity is limited by the carrier frequency! >One bit per cycle.

Mesh Topology

-Direct link between each pair of computers. -Very inefficient: n x (n-1) /2 >The number of connections needed for a mesh network grows faster than the number of computers. -Because connections are expensive >Few LANs employ a mesh topology in special circumstances

Why Different Topologies?

-Each topology has advantages and disadvantages -Ring: >Easy for computers to coordinate access and to detect whether the network is operating correctly >An entire ring network is disabled if one of the cables is cut -Star: >Protecting the network from damage to a single cable because each cable connects only one machine >Requiring more wires -Bus: >Fewer wires >A network is disabled if someone accidentally cuts the main cable >Difficult to add new devices if no tap exists. >>No tap/connector existing means cutting into the line. >As such, this topology is losing popularity >Plenty still around.

LAN Topologies

-Many LAN technologies have been invented -Each network is classified into a category according to its topology or general shape -Four basic topologies Bus Topology >Tree topology Ring Topology Mesh Topology Star Topology

Three general properties define a circuit switched paradigm:

-Point-to-point communication means that a circuit is formed between exactly two endpoints -Separate steps for circuit creation, use, and termination distinguishes circuits that are switched (i.e., established when needed) from circuits that are permanent -Performance equivalent to an isolated physical path >communication between two parties is not affected in any way by >communication among other parties >circuit switching must provide the illusion of an isolated path for each pair of communicating entities

CSMA/CD-Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection

-The computers attached to a bus network must coordinate >Ensuring that only one computer sends a signal at any time -A sender sends a brief transmission (Request to send) before sending data. -A receiver responds by sending a control message (clear to send) to indicate that it is ready. -A sender begins sending data. Collision > back-off mechanism -Not common anymore. >Star topology based on switch becomes more common. >No collision at all.

Synchronous TDM

-The multiplexor's clock is twice as faster as the demultiplexor's. -Need a technique to indicate where a slot begins and ends.

Packet switching 2

-To provide communication among N computers -A circuit-switched network: at least N/2 independent paths -A packet-switching network: only requires one path that is shared -A packet switching system uses statistical multiplexing
