Transmission MediaTransmission Media

A transmission medium: - a connection between a sender and a receiver - a signal can pass but with attenuation/distortion - a special system with a transmission bandwidth

Guided (Wired) Media (lines) - Twisted pair (0~10MHz) - Coaxial cable (100K~500MHz) - Optical fiber (180~370THz)

Unguided (Wireless) Media (air, vacuum, water, etc.) - LF (30~300KHz, Navigation) - MF/HF (300~3000KHz, AM/SW radio) - VHF (30~300MHz, TV & FM radio) - UHF (0.3~3GHz, TV, mobile phone) - SHF (3~30GHz, satellite, microwave) - EHF (30~300GHz, experimental com) - Infrared (no frequency allocation)

Segment the 0/1 stream into N bits groups

Timing or synchronization between a sender and a receiver is very important for data transmission

Lecture 1

Asynchronous and Synchronous TransmissionAsynchronous and Synchronous Transmission

Asynchronous transmission: 1) A bit stream is segmented into small groups characters (5~8 bits)

2) Add a start bit (0) and a stop bit (1) at the beginning and end of each character

3) Frame = start_bit + character + stop_bit (7~10 bits), but 2/9~2/10 no real data

4) Arbitrary long gap/interval/idle between two characters or frames

Sender Receiver011000101 100110001 001110101

Synchronous transmission: 1) A bit stream is segmented into relative large groups/blocks many characters or bytes

2) Add control bits at the beginning and end of each block

3) Frame = H_control_bits + characters (data_bits) + T_control_bits

4) No gap/interval/idle between two characters in a data block/frame

Communications need standards for inter-operations of different devices

Standard Organizations: - ISO (International Standards Organization): ISO number - ITU (International Telecommunication Union): V.num & X.num - EIA (Electronic Industries Association): EIA-num - IEEE (Institute of Electronics Engineers): IEEE.num - ANSI (American National Standards Institute): ASCII, etc. - ATM Forum and ATM Consortium - IETF (Internet Society and Internet Engineering Task Force): RFC num - W3C (World Wide Web Consortium): HTTP, HTML, XML, … - WAP Forum (Wireless Application Protocol): WAP-num

Serial & Asynchronous Transmission StandardsSerial & Asynchronous Transmission Standards

Standards of transmission in short distance: - EIA-232 or RS-232 - V.24 - ISO 2110 - EIA-449/RS-422/RS-423 - EIA-530 - X.21

Their common features - Serial & asynchronous transmission - Transmissions of ASCII code, byte, char - Use twisted copper lines - Low speed: several Kbits ~ Mbits per second - Short distance: < several tens of meters

• Transmit characters (7 or 8 bits)• Sender: 0 +15v and 1 -15v • Start bit (0) and stop bit (1) for every character 9/10 bits in total• A sender never leaves wire at 0v; when idle, puts –15v, i.e., 1• Receiver: 0 (+3v, +15v) and 1 (-3v, -15v), otherwise error
