Broadband

– a wide bandwidth data transmission which transports multiple signals at a wide range of
frequencies.
– An Internet traffic types that enables messages to be sent simultaneously used in fast
internet connections.

Bandwidth

– A maximum amount of data transmitted over an internet.

Streaming

– The technology of transmitting audio and video files in a continuous flow over a wired or
wireless internet connections

Types of Broadband Connections;

Fiber optic

 It carry a lot of data using pulses of light through strands of fiber at the fastest speed.
 Fios—most reliable Fiber optic network available
 940/880 Mbps.

Wireless

 Associated with WiFi.

 Connects a home or business to the internet using radio signals instead of cables.
 Verizon 5G Home Internet
 300 Mbps.

Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)

 Transmit data over traditional copper phone lines.

 15 Mbps.

Cable & Satellite

 Delivers high speed internet over the same coaxial cables that deliver pictures and sound to
your TV set.
 Connect to satellite.
 Provided by communication Satellite.
Wired and Wireless

Wired – involve cables

Wireless – not involved cables

Wired examples

 Telephone network
 Cable television
 Internet access
 Fiber optic communication

Wireless

 Not requires wires, cables or electrical conductors

 Transmitted through air

Types of wireless

Satellite communication

 Rely on transponder via signal from satellite

Examples

 Television: Network TV and Live news broadcasting

 Navigation: GPS, IRNSSS, Google maps, Offline maps
 Weather: Forecasting, Hurricanes, El Niño.

Infrared communication

 Light rays

Examples

 Security lights
 Burglar alarm
 Remote control
 Data-links

Broadcast radio

 Use of electromagnetic spectrum (radio waves) to distribute communication or content to the

audience via audio.

Examples

 AM
 FM
 Pirate radio
 Sports, Police
Microwave communication

 Transmit a communication through electromagnetic waves that measured a small number of

centimeter.
 Low frequency

Examples

 Small frequency radio

 Microwave oven

Wifi(Wireless fidelity)

 A low power wireless communication that serves as a router to all devices that it connects. And
it work as communication hub wirelessly.

Examples

 Connecting other devices

Mobile communications systems

 The advancement of network by generations

Examples

 2G
 3G
 4G
 5G(Latest)
 6G Japan

Medical

Examples

 Patient health monitoring

 Tele-surgery
 Mobile wireless biosensor systems
 Wireless tracking of patients

Wireless Power Transfer(WPT)

 The transmission of electrical power from a power source to a consuming device without using
discrete manmade conductors.

Examples

 Wireless charging
 Long range conduction

The Pros and Cons of wired and wireless

Wired

Pros

 Reliable not affected to other wireless

 Price is cheap
 High life expectancy
 High speed
 QoS (Quality of service)

Cons

 Affected by moisture and other weather conditions

 Affected by noise generated by machinery and magnetics length of wire runs limited.

Wireless

Pros

 Convenient
 Range
 High life expectancy

Cons

 Un-reliable affected by other wireless

 Price
 Signal can be easily intercepted
 Speed are much slower than wired
