In optical conununication, light is transmitted in the form of light puises along an opticaI fibre as transmission medium. Since, wavelength of the light is very small, it provides a very large band width and can carry a huge amount of information. And main merits of two wire transmission line or co-axial cable transmission are that they are quite cheap, very easy to install and less electrical disturbances (noise). So, the required answer is high band width and low transmission loss.
A system that describes the information exchange between two points is called the communication system. The transmission and reception process of information is called communication. The major elements of communication are such as:
The Transmitter of information
Channel or medium of communication
The Receiver of information
Examples Of Communication Systems:
The following are the examples of communication systems:
Internet
Public Switched Telephone network
Intranet and Extranet
Television
Types Of Communication Systems:
Turning on Signal specification or technology, the communication system is categorized as follows:
Analog technology communicates data as electronic signals of differing frequencies or amplitude. For instance Broadcast and telephone transmission.
In Digital technology, the data are created and processed in two states: High (represented as 1) and Low (represented as 0). Also this technology stores and transmits data in the form of 1's and 0's.
