Characteristics and quality of data transmission – Dependent on characteristics of medium and signal – Guided medium ∗ Medium is more important in setting transmission parameters – Unguided medium ∗ Bandwidth of the signal produced by transmitting antenna is important in setting transmission parameters ∗ Signal directionality · Lower frequency signals are omnidirectional · Higher frequency signals can be focused in a directional beam • Design of data transmission system – Concerned with data rate and distance
