Block Information that is produced and transmitted continuously. Stream Time to transmit the information. L/R Signals such as digitized telephone voice produce a steady stream. Constant bitrate 6. Converts information into signal suitable for transmission. Transmitter 7. Bandwidth for Telephone voice channel. 3 kHz 8. Obtain samples of x(t) at uniformly spaced time intervals. Sampling 9. ______is defined as range of frequencies where a signal has non-negligible power, e.g. range of band that contains 99% of total signal power. Bandwidth 10. Sometimes we use the term ______ to refer to a channel especially in the context of a specific mathematical model for the channel. Filter 11. ________ is characterized by probability density of amplitude samples . Noise 12. Converts received signal into form suitable for delivery to user. Receiver 13. PCM stands for. Pulse Code Modulation 14. 1 kbyte = ______ bytes. 210 15. ________ occurs if noise value exceeds certain magnitude. Error 16. It is the mapping of binary information sequence into the digital signal that enters the channel. Line coding 17. Its purpose is to pass a range of frequencies around some center frequency fc. Bandpass channel 18. How many pulses/Hz does QAM send? 2 pulses/Hz 19. Two insulated copper wires arranged in a regular spiral pattern to minimize interference. Twisted pair 20. Twisted pairs can provide high bit rates at short distances. True or False? True

TRUE OR FALSE 1. Sinusoid of frequency fc is centered in middle of bandpass channel. True 2. Digital modulators embed information into waveform with frequencies passed by sideband channel. False (bandpass)

3. If bandpass channel has bandwidth Wc Hz, Then baseband channel has Wc/2 Hz. True 4. Telephone Channel for modulation purposes has Wc = 3000 Hz. False (2400Hz) 5. In wired media, Spectrum can be re-used in separate media (wires or cables), more scalable. True 6. In wireless media, Signal energy contained & guided within medium. False 7. Coaxial Cable is Cylindrical braided outer conductor surrounds insulated inner wire conductor. True 8. In radio transmission, Cellular phones, satellite transmissions, Wireless LANs are communication with tethering. False 9. In Wireless Media Signal energy propagates in space, limited directionality. True 10. In Wired Media, No physical connection between network & user. False PROBLEM SOLVING 1. What is the delay if the time for signal to propagate across medium is 3.5 seconds and the time to transmit the information is 1.5 seconds? 5 s 2.
