Data transmission‚ digital transmission‚ or digital communications is the physical transfer of data (a digital bit stream) over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires‚ optical fibres‚ wireless communication channels‚ and storage media. The data are represented as an electromagnetic signal‚ such as an electrical voltage‚ radiowave‚ microwave‚ or infrared signal. Data representation can be divided into two categories: Digital

Data transmission methods Transmission Transmission is the act of transporting information from one location to another via a signal. The signal may be analog or digital‚ and may travel in different media. Transmission: Communication of data by propagation and processing of signals. Signal processing is the representation‚ transformation and manipulation of signals plus the information they contain. Signal Types Signals: An electric or electromagnetic representations of data by which data is

difference between Serial transmission and parallel transmission? Answer: Digital data transmission can occur in two basic modes: serial or parallel. Data within a computer system is transmitted via parallel mode on buses with the width of the parallel bus matched to the word size of the computer system. Data between computer systems is usually transmitted in bit serial mode . Consequently‚ it is necessary to make a parallel-to-serial conversion at a computer interface when sending data from a computer system

Introduction Data communications (Datacom) is the engineering discipline concerned with communication between the computers. It is defined as a subset of telecommunication involving the transmission of data to and from computers and components of computer systems. More specifically data communication is transmitted via mediums such as wires‚ coaxial cables‚ fiber optics‚ or radiated electromagnetic waves such as broadcast radio‚ infrared light‚ microwaves‚ and satellites. Data Communications =

What is Data Communications? Next Topic | TOC The distance over which data moves within a computer may vary from a few thousandths of an inch‚ as is the case within a single IC chip‚ to as much as several feet along the backplane of the main circuit board. Over such small distances‚ digital data may be transmitted as direct‚ two-level electrical signals over simple copper conductors. Except for the fastest computers‚ circuit designers are not very concerned about the shape of the conductor or

With alternate routing‚ there are a number of alternate routes between source and destination and a dynamic choice of routes is

and cross talk on a cabling medium are factors that prevent the accuracy of transmitted data to be intact. For these reasons different encoding methods exist. An example is when 2 wires are used to transmit music data to a speaker Digital signals don’t always have to be carried over to the receiving end by electricity‚ light can also be used for digital communication. Fibre Optics use light to transmit data through optical fibre within the cable. The strength of the light ray can also be a determining

1. INTRODUCTION The project “Automated Electricity Meter” aims to move away from the traditional method of manual reading of electricity meters in which an individual has to physically record the reading. Instead the project proposes to successfully be able to take the meter reading automatically without having a person be physically present while taking the reading‚ thereby reducing manpower requirement. This system helps the users by alerting them about the peak loads (max energy consumption)

do you mean by data communication? Ans: It is the exchange of data between two devices via some form of transmission medium such as wire cable. The communicating system must be part of a communication system made up of a combination of hardware and software. The effectiveness of a data communication system depends on three fundamental characteristics: delivery‚ accuracy and timeliness. 2. What is simplex? Ans: It is the mode of communication between two devices in which flow of data is unidirectional
