- 6. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal More Information must be a Sender and Receiver A protocol is a set of rules which governs the transfer of data between computers. Protocols allow communication between computers and networks. Handshaking is used to establish which protocols to use. Handshaking controls the flow of data between computers protocols will determine the speed of transmission, error checking method, size of bytes, and whether synchronous or asynchronous Examples of protocols are: token ring, CSMA/CD, X.25, TCP/IP Characteristics of Communication Systems
- 7. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal 5 Basic Components Every communication system has 5 basic requirements •Data Source (where the data originates) •Transmitter (device used to transmit data) •Transmission Medium (cables or non cable) •Receiver (device used to receive data) •Destination (where the data will be placed)
- 8. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal 5 Basic Components
- 9. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal •Bandwidth:The amount of data which can be transmitted on a medium over a fixed amount of time (second). It is measured on Bits per Second or Baud •Bits per Second (bps): A measure of transmission speed. The number of bits (0 0r 1) which can be transmitted in a second (more) •Baud Rate: Is a measure of how fast a change of state occurs (i.e. a change from 0 to 1) (more) Transmission Media Speed
- 10. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal This file has now been broken into four packets PACKET Packets Transmissions are broken up into smaller units or data transmissions called packets PACKET PACKET PACKET Example A data file is divided into packets. It does not matter what the transmission is. It could be Word document, a PowerPoint or an MP3. Imagine this Green box is a file for transfer
- 11. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Packets and OSI After the file is divided into packets extra information is required to make sure it all goes back together correctly. The OSI model helps to look after this. The OSI model also provides much more information which is included with each package.
- 12. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal More Information on OSI OSI 7 Layer Model •OSI “Open System Interconnection” •OSI is not a protocol but a list of protocols divided between 7 layers with each layer having a different set of functions. •Each packet is layered/packaged with protocols from each of the layers as it is processed. •The process of layering the protocols around each package is called encapsulation. The final encapsulated data packet is called a frame. Originally Created by Bob Baker Modified 2006 Graham Betts

- 19. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Examples of Communication Systems - E-mail - Voice Mail - Fax - Smart Phone - Instant Messaging - Telecommuting - Video-conferencing - Groupware - Telephony - E-Commerce - The Internet - Bulletin board system - The Web - Global positioning system
- 20. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal HSC Topic 3.4 Transmitting and Receiving in Communication Systems Communication concepts (transmission of data, protocols and handshaking, networks, LANs and WANs,Topologies, Network Access Methods) Network Hardware (NICs, Servers, Routers and Switches, Bridges and gateways, Hubs, Transmission media Network Software NOSs, Network Operating System Tasks, Logon and Logoff Procedures, Intranets and Extranets
- 21. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Any transmission May be: •analog or digital •Serial or parallel Communication Concepts
- 22. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Sender transmitted Data is transmitted, on a single channel, one bit at a time one after another - Much faster than parallel because of way bits processed (e.g. USB and SATA drives) Receiver received Serial Transmission 101 0 0 1 1 0
- 23. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Receiverreceived -each bit has it’s own piece of wire along which it travels - often used to send data to a printer Parallel Transmission Sendertransmitted All bits are sent simultaneously 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1
- 24. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Why Not use Parallel Instead of serial? Due to inconsistencies on channels data arrives at different times Because of the way it is transmitted packet switching cannot be used The above two points makes parallel slower than serial and requires higher bandwidth. Parallel transmissions are rarely used anymore
- 25. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Synchronous Transmission all data sent at once and no packet switching Asynchronous Transmission •Uses stop/ start bits •most common type of serial data transfer •Allows packet switching •Allows sharing of bandwidth (i.e. talk on phone while another person is using internet) Synchronous Vs AsynchronousTransmissions
- 26. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal - simplex: One direction only Transmission Direction
- 27. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Half Duplex Transmission half duplex: Both directions but only one direction at a time
- 28. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Full Duplex Transmission full duplex: send and receive both directions at once
- 29. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal •Ethernet (Ethernet Network) -Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) -TCP/IP 3 Common Protocols
- 30. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Ethernet Developed at Xerox in 1976. First protocol approved as an industry standard protocol 1983 LAN protocol used on bus and star Most popular LAN protocol Inexpensive
- 31. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) - Used on bus networks to avoid data collisions.
- 32. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal • Developed in 1973 for use on the ARPANET which was a defense force research network. -Adopted in 1983 as the Internet standard. all hosts on the Internet are required to use TCP/IP. - Allows transfer of data using packet switching TCP/IP
- 33. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal LANs Vs WANs LAN is “local Area network” which is a network confined to a small geographic area which is a building or a group of buildings. WAN is “wide area network” which is a network spread over a large geographic area. The largest WAN is the internet.
- 34. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Examples of LANS 3 different types of LANS are: Ring Bus Star
- 35. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Uses an empty data packet called a token and a special protocol called “token ring”. Packets travel around the ring in a clockwise direction. Clients require an empty token to transmit data. Advantages - no collisions because all data travels in same direction. Disadvantages - fails if an individual node in the network fails Ring
- 36. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal A bus is a form of Ethernet. Nodes linked by a cable known as the bus. Bus transmits in both directions and uses CSMA/CD protocol BUS TOPOLOGY Advantages - Easy to set up and maintain failure of one node does not affect network Disadvantages -Higher rate of data collision than with a bus network -fails if there is any damage to the bus
- 37. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal All data is sent from one client to another through the server. Advantages - If one client fails no other clients are affected. Disadvantages - If central file server fails the network fails. Star
- 38. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Network Hardware
- 39. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal A network is a number of computers and peripheral devices connected together so as to be able to communicate (i.e. transfer data) Each device in a network is called a node. Terminals are data entry points which can also display. What is a Network?
- 40. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal LAN – a network that connects computers in a limited geographical area. MAN – a backbone that connects LANs in a metropolitan area such as a city and handles the bulk of communications activity across that region. WAN – covers a large geographical area such as a city or country. Communication channels include telephone lines, Microwave, satellites, etc. NETWORKS: categorized by size
- 41. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal NETWORK TOPOLOGIES (categorizing by shape)
- 42. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Large networks can be separated into two or more smaller networks using a bridge. This is done to increase speed and efficiency. This type of network is called a segmented LAN and has largely been superseded by the use of switches which can transfer data straight to a computer and thus avoid bottleneck jams which bridges were designed to fix. Bridge Bridge
- 43. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Often used to connect a LAN with a WAN. Gateways join two or More different networks together. Gateway Gateway
- 44. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Internet public/international network which is used to access information, e-shopping, e-banking, email Intranet private network (LAN or WAN) used to share resources in secure environment uses web pages (HTML to view) and TCP/IP protocols (to make connection) Extranet intranet that has been extended to include access to or from selected external organizations such as customers, but not general public. Note: Connections via leased lines, or network interconnections. Internet, Intranet, Extranet
- 45. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Transmission Media twisted pair – telephone cable coaxial cable –Thick black cable used for higher bandwidth communications than twisted pair (i.e. Optus cable) fibre optic – data transferred through pulses of light. Extremely fast. Non cable methods such as satelite, microwave, wireless and bluetooth More on internet
- 46. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal SERVERS: Help to manage the network and the resources of that network. On larger networks servers commonly have specialised tasks such as: File Servers: stores and manages files, Print Servers: manages printers and print jobs, Mail Server: Manages email, Web Server: manages web access. Routers: connects multiple networks and are protocol independent. can be used in place of a switch or bridge. Switches: smart hubs which transmit packets to the destination port only Hubs: like double adapters /power boards in the home except instead of plugging in extension cords we are plugging in computers to allow them to communicate. Network Hardware More on Internet
- 47. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal - adding/removing users - assigning users to printers - giving users file access rights - installation of software and sharing with users - client installation and protocol assignment - logon and logoff procedures - network based applications Some Network Administration Tasks
- 48. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Other Information Processes in Communication Systems Collecting: phone as collection device with voice mail, EFTPOS terminal as a collection device for electronic banking processing: sending of attachments with e-mail, encoding and decoding methods, including: analog data to analog signal, digital data to analog signal, digital data to digital signal, analog data to digital signal, client- server architecture: the client controls the user interface and the application logic server controls access to the database
- 49. Graham Betts Collecting: The following are collection devices: ATMs for internet banking, EFTPOS for stores, microphone and video camera for video conferencing. Data can be analog or digital Collecting
- 50. Hanuwantsingh R Dewal Processing Processing: Is the manipulation or changing the data into a more useable format. The processing may include changing the appearance of the data, the file type or storage options.
