- 2. Learning Outcome • • • • • • To identify components in data communication Introduction Data communication Data representation Data flow Networks 2
- 3. Introduction Why Study Data Communications? • accessibility – to get accurate information. • data/information sharing? • Eg: From one pc – data copied onto a floppy disk and physically reloaded to another pc/remote computer – time consuming, inconveniences. • Revolution is occurred in telecommunications networks • Technological advances drive communication links to carry more and faster signals.
- 4. Data Communication • Telecommunication - communication at a distance (tele is Greek for far). E.g: telephony, telegraphy, and television. • Data Facts, concepts, and instructions presented in whatever form is agreed upon by the parties creating and using data. In the context of computer IS, data are represented by binary information units (or bits) produced and consumed in the form of 0s and 1s. Data communication - the exchange of data between two devices via some form of transmission medium (such as wire cable) 4
- 5. Data Communication • The effectiveness of a data communication system depends on 4 fundamental characteristics : 1. delivery – the system must deliver data to the correct destination. 2. accuracy – the system must deliver data accurately. 3. timeliness – The system must deliver data in timely manner. 4. Jitter – variation in arrival time. 5
- 6. Data Communication Data communication components 6
- 7. Data Communication Components 5 components : 1. Message – the information (data) to be communicated. Can consists of text, numbers, picture, audio, video. 2. Sender – the device that sends the data message. Can be a computer, workstation, mobile phone, video cam etc 3. Receiver – the device that receives the message. Can be a computer, workstation, mobile phone, tv etc. 7
- 8. 4. Medium – the physical path by which a message travels from sender to receiver. UTP cable, coaxial, fiber optic, radio wave. 5. Protocol – A set of rules that govern data communication. Represent an agreement between the communicating devices.
- 10. Data representation Types of data representation 1. Text • In the bit format (‘0’, ‘1’) – bit pattern • Known as code – a set of bit sequence • Unicode 2. Numbers • Also represented by bit patterns 3. Images • Also represented by bit patterns associated with each pixels. • black pixel – all ‘1’s 4. Audio 10 5. Video
- 11. Transmission mode • The direction of signal flow between two linked devices. • There are three types: – Simplex – Half-duplex – Full-duplex 11
- 12. Transmission mode • Simplex – The communication is unidirectional. – Only one of two stations on a link can transmit; the other can only receive – E.g: keyboards and traditional monitor • Half-duplex – Each station can both transmit and receive, but not at the same time. – When one device is sending, the other can only receive, and vice versa – The entire capacity of a channel is taken over at the time – E.g: walkie-talkie 12
- 13. • Full-duplex – Both stations can transmit and receive simultaneously. – Like two way street, traffic flowing in both directions at the same time. – Sharing the capacity of the link. – E.g: telephone line, videoconferencing
- 14. simplex 14
- 15. Half Duplex (Only 1 communication at a single time can be transmitted) 15
- 16. half-duplex 16
- 17. full-duplex 17
- 18. Networks • A network is a set of devices (often referred to as nodes) connected by communication links (channel). – A node can be a computer, printer, or any other device capable of sending and/or receiving data generated by other nodes on the network. • Networks use distributed processing, in which task is divided among multiple computers. • Network criteria: – Performance – transmission time and response time – Reliability – frequency of failure – Security – protecting data from unauthorized access and damage. 18
- 19. Learning outcome • Illustrate/draw network topology and architecture (C4) • linking the importance of protocols and standards (C3) • Topics – Topology – Network models – Protocol and standard
- 20. Physical Structure • Type of connection – Point-to-point – Multipoint
- 21. Physical Topology • Physical topology – refers to how the network is laid out physically • 4 basic topology – Mesh - dedicated point-to-point link to every other device – Star - dedicated point-to-point link only to a central controller – Bus – all devices are linked through a long cable acts as a backbone – Ring – dedicated point-to-point to its adjacent devices 21
- 22. • Hybrid topology – A collection of any two or more basic topology – example: a star backbone + three bus network
- 23. Figure 1.5 A fully connected mesh topology (five devices) • Require a dedicated line/connection - Can carry its own data • a link failure – does not affect others • Privacy/security – only intended recipient see the message • The number of connection is huge • Require a huge space for cabling • Require hardware 1.23
- 24. Figure 1.6 A star topology connecting four stations • Central controller • All communication are through the hub • Used in Local-Area Network (LAN) • Less expensive compared to mesh topology 1.24 • Robustness – when a link fail- only the link is affected • Single point of failure
- 25. Figure 1.7 A bus topology connecting three stations • Connected by drop line and tap • Signal travel through cable = energy are converted to heat • Therefore it become weaker with the distance 1.25
- 26. Figure 1.8 A ring topology connecting six stations • Connected to it immediate neighbours • Add/delete device require two connections 1.26
- 27. Figure 1.9 A hybrid topology: a star backbone with three bus networks 1.27
- 28. Categories of Networks • Based on size, ownership, the distance it covers and physical architecture. • LAN – Privately owned – Link the devices in a single office, building, or campus – Limited to a few kilometer – Resource sharing between PC/workstation – Other factor: transmission media and topology – Most common topologies: bus, ring, star – Data rate/speed up to 100Mbps 28
- 29. • MAN – Designed to extend over an entire city – Example: cable TV network, LAN to LAN resource sharing – Operates as private company or public company -Maxis • WAN – Provides long distance transmission of data, voice, image, video conference over large geographic areas – May utilize as public, leased or private communication equipment. – Enterprise network – refer to WAN that wholly owned and used by a single company. 29
- 31. Example An isolated LAN connecting 12 computers to a hub in a closet 1.31
- 32. Example : WANs: a switched WAN and a point-to-point WAN 1.32

- 39. 1-4 PROTOCOLS AND STANDARDS Protocol - synonymous with rule. Standards - agreed-upon rules. 1.39
- 40. Protocol & Standard • Protocol – set of rules that govern data communication. • Collection of rules - definition on what, how and when it is communicated. • Key element of a protocol are: • Syntax – refers to the structure or format of the data, the order in which they are presented. • Semantics – refers to the meaning of each section bits. • Timing – refers to two characteristic: when data should be sent, and how fast they can be sent. 40
- 41. • Standard –provides a model for development that makes it possible for a product to work regardless of individual manufacturer.
- 42. • Standard – creating and maintaining an open and competitive market for equipment manufacturers, guaranteeing national/international interoperability of data and telecommunications tech process • Data communication standards can be categorized to 2: – De jure (by law/regulation) • Legislated by an officially recognized body – De facto (by fact/convention) • Proprietary, nonproprietary 42
- 43. Standards Organization • Standard are developed by cooperation among standards creation committees, forums, and government regulatory agencies. • Standards Creation Committees: – ISO – International Standards Organization – ITU-T – International Telecommunications Union – Telecommunication Standards Sector – ANSI – American National Standard Institute – IEEE- Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers – EIA – Electronic Industries Association – Telcorda 43
- 44. • ISO – multinational body whose membership is drawn mainly from the standards creation committees of various governments throughout the world. – Aim: to facilitate the international exchange of goods and services by providing models for compatibility
- 45. • ITU-T – formerly known CCITT – Consultative Committee for International Telecommunication Union – Two popular standards – V series and X series • ANSI – US non-profit organization – US representative to both the ISO and the ITU-T • IEEE – The largest professional engineering society in the world – Develops standards for computing, communication, electrical engineering and electronics – Sponsored an important standard for LAN called Project 802 45
- 46. 46 idawaty@fsktm.upm.edu.my • EIA – Association of electronics manufacturers in US – Responsible for developing the EIA-232-D and EIA530 standards – define serial transmission between two digital devices. (computer to modem) • Telcordia – Provides R&D resources for the advancement of telecommunication technology. – Important source of draft standard to ANSI
- 47. • Forums – Telecommunications technology development is moving faster than the ability of standard committee to ratify standards – Standards committee are procedural bodies and by nature slow moving – The forums work with universities and users to test, evaluate and standardize new technologies – At the end, the forums present their conclusion to standards bodies – Example – Frame Relay Forum, ATM Forum, Internet Society (ISOC), Internet Engineering Task Force(IETF)
- 48. • Regulatory Agencies – All communication technology is subject to regulation by government agencies such as the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) in US. • Internet Standard – Tested specification to be used for Internet – Being published in Internet draft as Request for Comment(RFC) document 48
