Media Of Communication Part 2


Unguided Media
Unguided media transport electromagnetic wave without using a physical connection. This type of communication referred as wireless communication.
We can divided wireless transmission in :-
  1.Radio Wave:- Electromagnetic  waves ranging in frequencies between 3KHz and 1GHz are normally called radio wave.
  On radio wave connectivity used communication used Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc.
  •    Bluetooth:- It is a wireless network connectivity that enables to connect or transfer data between devices over a short range the physical range of connection up to 100 meter. Ex- Mobile phone, barcode scanning, portable speaker, wireless keyboard, mouse etc.
  •     Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity):- Wi-Fi is a network of wireless connection. Wi-Fi network establish by radio frequency like Bluetooth, but has more power, resulting a strong connection.

   · Wi-Fi is also called wireless Ethernet. It has connectivity range up to 150 metres.
  •   Wi-Max:- Wi-max stands for worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access. It is a type of telecommunication technology that provides wireless transmission form multi-point links to portable and fully mobile internet Access. Whose range up to 50km. and speed up to 3mbps.

  2.Microwave:- Electromagnetic waves having frequencies between 1 and 300Ghz are called microwave. Microwaves are unidirectional. It is very useful when unicast (one to one) communication is needed.
Ex- Cellular phones, Satellite network and wireless LAN.
  3.Infrared waves:- Infrared waves, with frequencies from 300 GHz to 400 THz. Can be used for short range communication. It is necessary to place two infrared devices within a few feet for them. It can work only in the direct “Light of sight”.
Ex- IR Remotes, motion sensors etc.

Computer Generations

 Computer Generations   Computers have evolved over time through different generations, each marked by significant technological advancements and changes in design and architecture. These generations are often categorized based on the underlying hardware and the key developments that distinguish one Generation from another. Let's explore the main computer generations: First Generation Computers    The First Generation of computers refers to the initial period of electronic computing, characterized by the use of vacuum tubes as the primary electronic component. This Generation spans the 1940s and 1950s and is marked by groundbreaking developments in computer technology.  Examples of First-Generation Computers:  o ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer): Completed in 1945, ENIAC was one of the first electronic general-purpose computers. It was designed to calculate artillery firing tables for the United States Army during World War ...

Programming in "C"

 Introduction   C is a general-purpose programming language that was developed in the early 1970s by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Laboratories. It has since become one of the most widely used programming languages and has influenced the development of many other languages, including C++, Java, and C#. C is known for its efficiency, flexibility, and low-level programming capabilities. It is commonly used for system programming, embedded systems, and developing operating systems. C is also a popular choice for developing applications that require high performance, such as game engines and scientific simulations.   Here are some key features and concepts of C programming:   Syntax: C has a relatively simple syntax compared to some other programming languages. It uses a combination of keywords, variables, data types, operators, and control structures to write programs.  Variables and Data Types: You declare variables to store data in C. Various d...

History of Language "C"

  History of C      The history of C programming dates back to the early 1970s when Dennis Ritchie created it at Bell Laboratories. Here's a brief timeline of the major milestones in the history of C:  1969: The development of C began as a successor to the B programming language, which Ken Thompson created. Dennis Ritchie wanted to improve upon B's capabilities and efficiency.  1972: The C programming language was developed primarily to support the development of the Unix operating system. Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie rewrote Unix in C, which helped in porting the operating system to different computer architectures easily. 1978: The first edition of "The C Programming Language," also known as the "K&R C," was published. Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie wrote it, becoming the authoritative reference for C programming. 1983: The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) formed a committee to establish a standard for the C language. The ...
