Question No: 26 ( Marks: 5 ) Describe different types of NRZ encoding scheme? Answer: Non Return to Zero (NRZ) o In NRZ Encoding, the level of signal is either positive or negative o NRZ-L Level of the signal depends on the type of bit it represents

A +ve voltage usually means the bit is a 1 and a ve voltage means the bit is a 0 (vice versa) o NRZ-I The inversion of the level represents a 1 bit A bit 0 is represented by no change NRZ-I is superior to NRZ-L due to synchronization provided by signal change each time a 1 bit is encountered The string of 0s can still cause problem but since 0s are not as likely, they are less of a problem

Question No: 27 ( Marks: 10 ) Describe functions of each layer of OSI Model briefly? Answer:

The Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) model has seven layers. This article describes and explains them, beginning with the 'lowest' in the hierarchy (the physical) and proceeding to the 'highest' (the application). The layers are stacked this way:

Application Presentation Session Transport

Network Data Link Physical

PHYSICAL LAYER The physical layer, the lowest layer of the OSI model, is concerned with the transmission and reception of the unstructured raw bit stream over a physical medium. It describes the electrical/optical, mechanical, and functional interfaces to the physical medium, and carries the signals for all of the higher layers. It provides:

PRESENTATION LAYER The presentation layer formats the data to be presented to the application layer. It can be viewed as the translator for the network. This layer may translate data from a format used by the application layer into a common format at the sending station, then translate the common format to a format known to the application layer at the receiving station.
