DATA COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

Communication networks

Circuit Switched Packet Switched


Unswitched(broadcast nets)


packet radio satellite local

Packet switched nets are store and forward nets.

ckt switched nets have dedicated communication paths (i.e. telephone)

For example:


net station

node

A Broadcast Comm. Net can be WAN, the media is unshared


Dish

LAN EXAMPLES:


Ethernet with a bus topology:


Ring topology net:

Note: No switching nodes ,media is shared in LAN

For packet radio,every station can hear every other,the media is shared so this is a LAN technology


Agent input device transmitter channel

channel receiver output device

This course addresses the communication systems parts between the input and output devices.

Computer Communications Architecture

The Three Layer ModelApplication run on computer which use

networks

network layer - xchange of data between computer

and network transport layer - error detection and correction application layer - file xfer etc.


File xfer modulesxmits passwordsfile commandsfile records


communications service module–error correction–encryption–keeps track of data to ensure delivery

Network Access Module-net specific stuff


Applications Applications

Transport layer 1 2 3

Transport layer 1 2 3

network access

network accessCom net


The transport layer will break data into chunks adds control information and this is called a PDU or protocol data unit

Network access layer is told which computer but not which SAP

(SAP)service acess points 1 2 and 3 are used to uniquely identify the application communicating

Protocol Data Units

TPDU1 = transport protocol data unit := transport hdr, chunk1

TPDU2 = transport hdr, chunk2

NPDU = network protocol data unit network hdr, TPDU

Protocol Data Units

Application data = chunk1 + chunk2 + ...

Destination SAP (service access points)

TPDU has destination SAP so that appropriate application obtains data

Protocol Data Units

Sequence # TPDU’s may be sent in any

order,and by different routes and

may arrive at different times.TPDU may have error detection or correction codes built-in

NPDU destination address (i.e. IP address) facilities requires (i.e. priority)

Transmission Terminology

point-to-point :- guided transmission is unshared

I.e. O(N**2) connectivity (completely connected)

L12

(N 2 N ) = number of links


Multipoint guided transmission allows shared medium


ANSI Defs:–simplex - one direction only–half-duplex - two-way but not at the same time.

– full-duplex - simultaneous two way transmission


CCITT– CCITT vs ANSI– simplex = half-duplex– duplex = full-duplex

CCITT = international telegraph and telephone consultive committee

Analog and Digital Data Transmission

data - entities which convey meaning

signals - encoding of data

signaling - act of sending a signal

transmission - communication of data by propagation and processing

of signals


digital data

- takes on discrete values, i.e. text integers.

analog data

- takes on continuously varying patterns of

intensity, i.e.. sound

But what is digital? What is Analog? How do we defines these things?


lim s(t) s(a)

t a

s(t) is continuous (i.e. analog) iff

for all a


A signal, s(t) is discrete iff

lim s(t) s(a)

t afor some a

For example, the function s(t) has multiple values or does not exist and there fore the limit does not exist.


Let the function f be defined on the set S. f is continuous at a point P0 of S iffLim f (Pn ) f (P0 )

n whenever Pn P0 ,Pn S


If f is defined on an interval [a, b] and is continuous at then given an

0 there exists a s. t .

f (x ) f (x0 ) for all x1 x2 x1 ,x2 S

DATA and SIGNALS

Modem (modulator/demodulator) modulation involves two waveforms:

The modulating signal (the message) and the carrier wave which is altered by the modulating signal

The complementary process is called demodulation

Bits <-> modem <-> analog signal <-> modem <-> bits

DATA and SIGNALS

Codec := coder-decoder

analog <-> codec <-> bitsIn General a digital waveform has

infinite bandwidth.Band limited channels low-pass filter

square waves, this rounds their corners.

Rule of thumb: if a signal is W bps, you may need 2W Hz bandwidth.

Signal Strenth

attenuation := a loss of signal strength–signal strength falls off logarithmically so the decibel is used to measure the loss

–Decibel gains and losses are computed via simple addition and subtraction.

Signal Strenth

Signal Strenth Example
