Assignment A

1). Explain critically the statement: “The channel from my VDU to the computer uses full duplex asynchronous transmission”.

2). Describe how a business might use an existing telephone network as a computer network? Describe some other commercial alternatives to telephone networks.

3). Why is multiplexing needed in data communication systems? Illustrate time division multiplexing and frequency division multiplexing.

4). A band of frequencies range from 100 to 190 KHz is being allocated for channels. Each channel is 5 KHz wide with a 1 KHz guard band. Sketch the channel assignments from 100 to 112 KHz.

5). With the help of a diagram, explain how an analog signal is converted to a digital signal?

 

Assignment B

1). Can we develop our own multimedia? If yes, explain with illustration, how?

2). What is MIDI? How MIDI can be used, also explain the way of connecting the devices to MIDI?

3). Why circuit switching is preferred over packet switching in voice communication? Explain.

 

 

 

Case Study
