Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) is a technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path, such as cable or wireless system. Each carrier is modulated by the data such as text, voice, video etc. Orthogonal FDM spread spectrum technique distributes the data over a large number of carriers that are spaced apart at precise frequencies. This spacing provides the “orthogonality.” This technique, which avoids the demodulators from seeing frequencies other than their own.The basic approach of OFDM is shown in the figure below −The benefit of OFDM is high spectral efficiency, resiliency due to RF interference and lower ...

Bluetooth is a proprietary open wireless technology measure for exchanging information over short areas (using short-wavelength radio channels in the ISM band from 2400-2480 MHz) from permanent and mobile devices.It can be creating personal area networks (PANs) with high levels of security. It was made by telecoms vendor Ericsson in 1994, and it was initially conceived as a wireless method to RS-232 data cables. It can connect multiple devices, overcoming issues of synchronization.Bluetooth is handled by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group, which has more than 14, 000 member companies in telecommunication, computing, networking, and used electronics. Bluetooth is a free ... Read More

The ICMP represents Internet Control Message Protocol. It is a network layer protocol. It can be used for error handling in the network layer, and it is generally used on network devices, including routers. IP Protocol is a best-effect delivery service that delivers a datagram from its original source to its final destination. It has two deficiencies−Lack of Error ControlLack of assistance mechanismsIP protocol also lacks a structure for host and management queries. A host needs to resolve if a router or another host is alive, and sometimes a network manager needs information from another host or router.ICMP has been ... Read More

What is Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP)?

Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) is a network-specific standard protocol. It is described in RFC 903. Some network hosts, such as a diskless workstation, do not know their own IP address when they are booted. To determine their own IP address, they use a mechanism similar to ARP, but now the hardware address of the host is the known parameter, and the IP address is the queried parameter.The reverse address resolution is performed the same way as the ARP address resolution. The same packet format is used for the ARP.An exception is the operation code field that now takes the ... Read More

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a network-specific standard protocol. The Address Resolution Protocol is important for changing the higher-level protocol address (IP addresses) to physical network addresses. It is described in RFC 826.ARP relates an IP address with the physical address. On a typical physical network such as LAN, each device on a link is identified by a physical address, usually printed on the network interface card (NIC). A physical address can be changed easily when NIC on a particular machine fails.The IP Address cannot be changed. ARP can find the physical address of the node when its internet address ...

This Algorithm changes its routing persistence to pursue changes within the topology and traffic also. Routing decisions are often changed when network topology and load change. Adaptive routing aims to assist avoid packet delivery failure, improve network performance and relieve network congestion.Adaptive routing can generate nodes to develop into overloaded because of the complex processing decisions they create. Because routers send data about the network topology, adaptive routing is often less ensure than non-adaptive routing processes and needed more bandwidth.It is equivalent to GPS, which uses data about road conditions to redirect drivers, adaptive routing uses data about network congestion ...

The services of the network layer are routing the packets from source to destination devices. It can do this in a single pass or many passes. The algorithm which selects the routes and data structures that they facilitate is known as the routing algorithm. This is a significant field of network layer design. They are that element of network layer application responsible for transmitting the output channel for an incoming packet.In the case of datagrams, the decisions create new for each appearing data packet, and in the case of the virtual circuit, they are made only once, i.e., when a ...

Internet Protocol version 6 (IPV 6) is the replacement for version 4 (IPV 4). The phenomenal development of the Internet has begun to push IP to its limits. It provides a large address space, and it contains a simple header as compared to IPv4.Features of IPV6There are various features of IPV6, which are as follows−Larger address space: An IPV6 address is 128 bits long. It is compared with the 32-bit address of IPV4. It will allow for unique IP-addresses up to 3.4 x 1038 whereas IPV4 allows up to 4.3 x 108 unique address.Better Header format: New header form has ...

This layer is the third layer of the OSI model, and it is the lowest layer that manages end to end transmission and provides services to the transport layer. The network layer’s primary role is to route the messages associated with the higher protocol layer above it and across the network (the network which links the distributed DTEs systems).The Network Layer can operate both in a connectionless-mode as well as in a connectionoriented mode. In LANs, the frame is addressed and routed between nodes attached to the same LAN using their point of attachment address.The network layer is also known ... Read More

Protocol suites are collecting protocols that act at different layers of the network model to ensure successful communication. There is the various function of the protocol, which are as follows−Connection Establishment/ReleaseA data transfer can be a communication-oriented transfer or connectionless transfer. The connectionless services are the most unreliable services. Most of the protocols provide connection-oriented services. If a large volume of data transfer is required, connectionoriented services are always better.EncapsulationA protocol defines how the data is encapsulated in the frame or packet. Each packet in all PDUs contains three fields for control information along with the data field. There are ... Read More
