ITS323 Transmission Terminology Data Transmission ◮ Data transmission occurs between a transmitter and Terminology receiver via some medium Time Domain ◮ Communication is in form of electromagnetic waves or Frequency Domain signals Analog and Digital ◮ Medium may be: Impairments Guided: wires/cables, e.g. twisted pair, coaxial cable, Capacity optical fiber Unguided: wireless, e.g. air, water, vacuum ◮ Configuration may be: Point-to-point: only 2 devices share medium Multipoint: more than 2 devices share medium ◮ Direction of communications may be: Simplex: one direction, e.g. television Half duplex: either direction, but only one way at a time, e.g. police radio Full duplex: both directions at the same time, e.g. telephone

ITS323 Frequency, Spectrum and Bandwidth Data Transmission ◮ Transmitter generates electromagnetic signals, which is Terminology transmitted over medium Time Domain ◮ Electromagnetic signals represent data Frequency Domain Analog and Digital ◮ Electromagnetic signal consists of one or more Impairments component signals Capacity ◮ Electromagnetic signals can be viewed in two domains: Time domain: signal intensity vs time Frequency domain: Peak signal intensity of component vs frequency

ITS323 Frequency Domain Concepts Data Transmission ◮ Communication signals are composed of many Terminology component sinusoid signals at different frequencies, e.g. Time Domain Frequency Domain s ( t ) = (4 /π ) × [sin (200 π t ) + (1 / 3) sin (600 π t )] Analog and Digital Impairments ◮ Or, if f = 100 Hz : Capacity s ( t ) = (4 /π ) × [sin (2 π ft ) + (1 / 3) sin (2 π (3 f ) t )] ◮ When all frequency components of signal are integer multiple of one frequency, that one is called fundamental frequency; the others are harmonic frequencies ◮ Period of resulting signal is equal to period of fundamental frequency component ◮ By adding together sine waves with different amplitudes, frequencies and phases, any desired communications signal can be constructed
