    Study Notes

    Transmission Media

    • Guided media for transmission includes twisted pair, coaxial cable, and fiber optic cable.

    Line Coding

    • The purpose of line coding in digital transmission is to convert the digital signal into a format suitable for transmission over a communication channel.

    Error Control Protocols

    • The Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) protocol is based on retransmission of the entire frame when an error is detected.

    Modem Function

    • The primary function of a modem in data communication is to convert digital signals from a computer into analog signals that can be transmitted over analog communication channels.

    Multiplexing Techniques

    • Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) allows multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single communication channel by allocating a different time slot to each signal.
