Two Important Physical Limits
Of a Transmission SystemPropagation delay
Time required for signal to travel across mediaExample: electromagnetic radiation travels
through space at the speed of light (c = 3*108 meters per second)
BandwidthMaximum times per second the signal can
change

Transmission of DataNetwork hardware encodes information for
transmission Two types of encoding
Analog (amount of energy proportional to value of item)
Digital (two forms of energy to encode 0 and 1Computer networks use the latter

Encoding DetailsSeveral organizations produce networking
standardsIEEEITUEIA
Hardware that adheres to standard interoperable

The RS-232C StandardExample use
Connection to keyboard / mouseSerial port on PC
Specified by EIAVoltage is +15 or –15Cable limited to ~50 feetLatest EIA standard is RS-422 (ITU standard is V.24)Uses asynchronous communication
![Page 13: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Asynchronous Communication
Sender and receiver must agree onNumber of bits per characterDuration of each bit
ReceiverDoes not know when a character will arriveMay wait forever
To ensure meaningful exchange sendStart bit before characterOne or more stop bits after character

Duration of a Bit in RS-232C
Determined by baud rateTypical baud rates: 9.6 Kbaud, 14.4 Kbaud, 28.8
KbaudDuration of bit is 1 / baud rateSender and receiver must agree a prioriReceiver samples signalDisagreement results in framing error

Two-Way CommunicationDesirable in practiceRequires each side to have transmitter and
receiverCalled full duplex
![Page 17: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Electrical Transmission(The Bad News)
It’s an ugly worldElectrical energy dissipates as it travels alongWires have resistance, capacitance, and
inductance which distort signalsMagnetic or electrical interference distorts signalsDistortion can result in loss or misinterpretation
![Page 19: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Illustration of DistortedSignal for a Single Bit
In practiceDistortion can be much worse than illustrated
![Page 20: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
ConsequencesRS-232 hardware must handle minor distortions
Take multiple samples per bitTolerate less than full voltage
Cannot use electrical current for long-distance transmission
![Page 21: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Long-Distance Communication
Important fact: an oscillating signal travels farther than direct current
For long-distance communicationSend a sine wave (called a carrier wave)Change (modulate) the carrier to encode date
Note: modulated carrier technique used for radio and television
![Page 22: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Types of ModulationAmplitude modulation (used in AM radio)Frequency modulation (used in FM radio)Phase shift modulation (used for data)
![Page 24: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Illustration ofAmplitude Modulation
Strength of signal encodes 0 or 1One cycle of wave needed for each bitData rate limited by carrier bandwidth

Illustration ofPhase-Shift Modulation
Change in phase encodes K bitsData rate higher than carrier bandwidth

Half-duplex modemDoes provide 2-way communicationTransmits in one direction at any timeUses two wires

RecallPropagation delay
Determined by physicsTime required for signal to travel across medium
BandwidthElectrical property of physical transmission
systemMaximum times per second signal can change
![Page 34: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Fundamental Measures Of A
Digital Transmission SystemDelay
The amount of time required for a bit of data to travel from one end to the other
Usually the same as the propagation delay in underlying hardware
ThroughputThe number of bits per second that can be
transmittedRelated to underlying hardware bandwidth
![Page 35: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Relationship Between Digital
Throughput and BandwidthGiven by Nyquist’s theorem:
D = 2 B log2 Kwhere
D is maximum data rateB is hardware bandwidthK is number of values used to encode data
![Page 36: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
Applications of Nyquist’s Theorem
For RS-232K is 2 because RS-232 only uses two values,
+15 or –15 volts, to encode data bitsD is 2 B log2 2 = 2 B
For phase-shift encodingSuppose K is 8 (possible shifts)D is 2 B log2 8 = 2 B * 3 = 6 B
![Page 37: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
More Bad NewsPhysics tells us that real systems emit and
absorb energy (e.g., thermal)Engineers call unwanted energy noiseNyquist’s theorem
Assumes a noise-free systemOnly works in theory
Shannon’s theorem corrects for noise
![Page 38: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Shannon’s TheoremGives capacity in presence of noise:
C = B log2 (1 + S/N)where
C is the effective channel capacity in bits per secondB is hardware bandwidthS is the average power (signal)N is the noise
S/N is signal-to-noise ratio
![Page 39: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Application of Shannon’s Theorem
Conventional telephone systemEngineered for voiceBandwidth is 3000 HzSignal-to-noise ratio is approximately 1000Effective capacity is
3000 log2 (1 + 1000) = ~30000 bps Conclusion: dialup modems have little hope
of exceeding 28.8 Kbps
![Page 40: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
The Bottom LineNyquist’s theorem means finding a way to
encode more bits per cycle improves the data rate
Shannon’s theorem means that no amount of clever engineering can overcome the fundamental limits of a real transmission system
![Page 41: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

MultiplexingFundamental to networkingGeneral conceptUsed in
Lowest level of transmission systemsHigher levels of network hardwareProtocol softwareApplications

The General Concept of Multiplexing
Separate pairs of communications travel across shared channel
Multiplexing prevents interferenceEach destination receives only data sent by
corresponding source
![Page 43: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
Multiplexing TerminologyMultiplexor
Device or mechanismAccepts data from multiple sourcesSends data across shared channel
DemultiplexorDevice or mechanismEstracts data from shared channelSends to correct destination
![Page 44: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
Two Basic Types of Multiplexing
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)Only one item at a time on shared channelItem marked to identify sourceDemultiplexor uses identifying mark to know
where to deliverFrequency Division Multiplexing (FDM)
Multiple items transmitted simultaneouslyUses multiple “channels”
![Page 45: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
45
Transmission SchemesBaseband transmission
Uses only low frequenciesEncodes data directly
Broadband transmissionUses multiple carriersCan use higher frequenciesAchieves higher throughputHardware more complex and expensive
![Page 46: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Scientific Principle BehindFrequency Division
Multiplexing
Note: this is the same principle that allows a cable TV company to send multiple television signals across a single cable
Two or more signals that use different carrier frequencies can be transmitted over a single medium simultaneously without interference
![Page 47: Chapter 4-6](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815d8d550346895dcb9be3/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
