Question
  1. What are the three basic units in communication systems? Write briefly the function of each of these.
  2. Write any three applications of the internet used in communication systems.

Answer

Three Basic units:
Transmitter:
  • Processing & transmission of message signal.
Communication channel:
  • The link for propagating the signal from transmitter to receiver.
Receiver:
  • Extracting the message signal from the signal received by it.
Three applications of internet:
