Baseband

In the physical layer, Bandwidth usage that uses all the available frequencies on a medium to transmit data such as Ethernet.

In the physical layer, a sender indicates that it's about to start transmitting by sending a start bit to the receiver, it sends a stop bit to indicate that it has finished its transmission.

Multiplexing strategy

In the physical layer, allows multiple communications sessions to share the same physical medium

Frequency-division multiplexing (FDM)

In the physical layer, divides a medium's frequency range into channels, and different communication sessions transmit their data over different channels.

In the physical layer, dynamically assigns times slots to communications sessions on an as-needed basis.

Time-division multiplexing (TDM)

In the physical layer, supports different communication sessions on the same physical medium by causing the sessions to take turns.

Synchronous synchronization

In the physical layer, synchronizes the internal clocks of both the sender and receiver to ensure that they agree on when bits begin and end.

Synchronizing bits

In the physical layer, when one bit stops and another bit starts

Sliding window

In the transport layer, Where window size begins with one segments, if there is a successful acknowledgment of that one segment, the window size doubles to two segments, and so on with exponential increase in window size until the receiver does not acknowledge successful receipt or configured maximum window size is reached.

User Data-gram Protocol (UDP)

In the transport layer, a connection-less transport protocol that provides unreliable transport

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)

In the transport layer, a connection-oriented transport protocol, that provides reliable transport

Windowing

In the transport layer, one or more segments are sent at one time, and a receiver can acknowledge the receipt of all the segments in a window with a single acknowledgment

Buffering

In the transport layer, when a device allocates a chunk of memory (sometimes called a buffer or queue) to store segments of bandwidth is not currently available to transmit those segments.
