What is the major advantage that the Manchester scheme has over the NRZ scheme ?

there is always a transition in the middle of a bit. Thus, the receiver can expect a signal change at regular intervals and can synchronize itself with the incoming bit stream.

what is the primary advantage of 4B/5B digital encoding?

there will never be more than two 0's in a row transmitted If you never transmit more than two Os in a row using NRZI encoding, then you will never have a long period in which there is no signal transition.

pulse amplitude modulation (PAM)

tracking an analog waveform and converting it to pulses that represent the wave's height above (or below) a threshold; part of pulse code modulation

Nonreturn to Zero-level (NRZ-L)

transmits 1s as zero voltages and 0s as positive voltages

in this type of modulation, the analog signal takes on a discrete number of signal levels.

Bipolar - AMI encoding scheme

unique because it uses three voltage levels -When a device transmits a binary 0, a zero voltage is transmittted -When the device transmits a binary 1, either a positive voltage or a negative voltage is transmitted -Which of these is transmitted depends on the binary 1 value that was last transmitted?

noise

unwanted electrical or electromagnetic energy that degrades the quality of signals and data

how do you calculate a maximum data rate ?

use Shannon's equation S(f) = f x log2 (1 + S/N)• M = (V + Vn)/Vn, - M →Number of message at one transmission - V →Voltage of signal - Vn →Voltage of noise

data communications

use periodic analogs signals and nonperiodic digital signals.

what is the primary advantage of the Bipolar-AMI scheme ?

when all the voltages are added together after a long transmission, there should be a total voltage of zero. That is, the positive and negative voltages essentially cancel each other out.

Noise in digital signal

you can still discern a high voltage from a low voltage; too much noise you cannot discern a high voltage from low voltage.
