Network ID, TCP/IP, IPv4, & IPv6 | Significance in Data Transmission

 

Significance of Network ID in data transmission

Last Updated: 7/1/22

To transfer data packets from one computer to another, some protocol is used. The procedure is analogous to postal mail delivery. If you want to send a letter to a friend who lives 500 miles away, the corresponding office will handle the backend process of getting your letter to your friend.

TCP/IP is a popular internet transmission protocol for transferring data packets from one computer to another. The network ID is the destination network's address as well as the host's address. TCP/IP transports the following data:

  • Source address 
  • Destination address (network address + host address)
  • Checksum
  • Data, etc
When two computers are connected to the same network, there is no need for routing. However, it is less likely. When you send a from your computer, it is routed through several intermediate networks / routers. The number of intermediate routers is referred to as the 'number of hops.' Computer networks are becoming more sophisticated. They automatically select the shortest path or a path with the fewest hops between sender and receiver.

IPv4 addresses, for example, are 32 bits long, whereas IPv6 addresses are 128 bits long. IPv4 is still widely used today. Assume that the destination IP address is 192.162.0.3. This IP (IPv4) now has two parts. The first part, 192.162.0.0, is known as the network address, and the second part, 0.0.0.3, is known as the host address. Routers that transport data between networks are unaware of the host. This only serves to identify the router (in which the host belongs to). The router then locates the host in its routing table and delivers the data packets.
The receiver then sends the acknowledgement to the sender.

# How TCP termination will happen when server went down in middle of data transfer?

Option in Windows XP allows user to configure one computer in your network as host through which all other workgroup can connect to Internet
A. You can do this with a host computer and a networking hub.

Modulation Constellation Diagrams BER vs. SNR BER vs SNR for M-QAM, M-PSK, QPSk, BPSK, ... What is Bit Error Rate (BER)? The abbreviation BER stands for bit error rate, which indicates how many corrupted bits are received (after the demodulation process) compared to the total number of bits sent in a communication process. It is defined as,  In mathematics, BER = (number of bits received in error / total number of transmitted bits)  On the other hand, SNR refers to the signal-to-noise power ratio. For ease of calculation, we commonly convert it to dB or decibels.   What is Signal the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)? SNR = signal power/noise power (SNR is a ratio of signal power to noise power) SNR (in dB) = 10*log(signal power / noise power) [base 10] For instance, the SNR for a given communication system is 3dB. So, SNR (in ratio) = 10^{SNR (in dB) / 10} = 2 Therefore, in this instance, the s...

Constellation Diagrams of ASK, PSK, and FSK

BASK (Binary ASK) Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: 0 or -√Eb, where Eb​ is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1.    BFSK (Binary FSK) Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: +√Eb​ ( On the y-axis, the phase shift of 90 degrees with respect to the x-axis, which is also termed phase offset ) or √Eb (on x-axis), where Eb​ is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1.  BPSK (Binary PSK) Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: +√Eb​ or -√Eb (they differ by 180 degree phase shift), where Eb​ is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1.    Simulator for BASK, BPSK, and BFSK Constellation Diagrams SNR (dB): 15 Add AWGN Noise Modulation Type BPSK BFSK ...

Fundamentals of Channel Estimation

Channel Estimation Techniques Channel Estimation is an auto-regressive process that may be performed with a number of iterations. There are commonly three types of channel estimation approaches. 1. Pilot estimation  2. Blind estimation  3. Semi-blind estimation. For Channel Estimation,  CIR [↗] is used. The amplitudes of the impulses decrease over time and are not correlated. For example, y(n) = h(n) * x(n) + w(n) where y(n) is the received signal, x(n) is the sent signal, and w(n) is the additive white gaussian noise At the next stage, h(n+1) = a*h(n) + w(n) The channel coefficient will be modified as stated above at the subsequent stage. The scaling factor "a" determines the impulse's amplitude, whereas "h(n+1)" represents the channel coefficient at the following stage. Pilot Estimation Method To understand how a communication medium is currently behaving, a channel estimate is necessary. In order to monitor a channel's behavior in practice communication ...

Comparisons among ASK, PSK, and FSK | And the definitions of each

Modulation ASK, FSK & PSK Constellation MATLAB Simulink MATLAB Code Comparisons among ASK, PSK, and FSK    Comparisons among ASK, PSK, and FSK Comparison among ASK,  FSK, and PSK Performance Comparison: 1. Noise Sensitivity:    - ASK is the most sensitive to noise due to its reliance on amplitude variations.    - PSK is less sensitive to noise compared to ASK.    - FSK is relatively more robust against noise, making it suitable for noisy environments. 2.

Difference between AWGN and Rayleigh Fading

Wireless Signal Processing Gaussian and Rayleigh Distribution Difference between AWGN and Rayleigh Fading 1. Introduction Rayleigh fading coefficients and AWGN, or additive white gaussian noise [↗] , are two distinct factors that affect a wireless communication channel. In mathematics, we can express it in that way.  Fig: Rayleigh Fading due to multi-paths Let's explore wireless communication under two common noise scenarios: AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) and Rayleigh fading. y = h*x + n ... (i) Symbol '*' represents convolution. The transmitted signal  x  is multiplied by the channel coefficient or channel impulse response (h)  in the equation above, and the symbol  "n"  stands for the white Gaussian noise that is added to the signal through any type of channel (here, it is a wireless channel or wireless medium). Due to multi-paths the channel impulse response (h) changes. And multi-paths cause Rayleigh fa...

Constellation Diagram of FSK in Detail

  Binary bits '0' and '1' can be mapped to 'j' and '1' to '1', respectively, for Baseband Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) . Signals are in phase here. These bits can be mapped into baseband representation for a number of uses, including power spectral density (PSD) calculations. For passband BFSK transmission, we can modulate signal 'j' with a lower carrier frequency and signal '1' with a higher carrier frequency while transmitting over a wireless channel. Let's assume we are transmitting carrier signal fc1 for the transmission of binary bit '1' and carrier signal fc2 for the transmission of binary bit '0'.

Gaussian minimum shift keying (GMSK)

Dive into the fascinating world of GMSK modulation, where continuous phase modulation and spectral efficiency come together for robust communication systems! Core Process of GMSK Modulation Phase Accumulation (Integration of Filtered Signal) After applying Gaussian filtering to the Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) signal, we integrate the smoothed NRZ signal over time to produce a continuous phase signal: θ(t) = ∫ 0 t m filtered (Ï„) dÏ„ This integration is crucial for avoiding abrupt phase transitions, ensuring smooth and continuous phase changes. Phase Modulation The next step involves using the phase signal to modulate a high-frequency carrier wave: s(t) = cos(2Ï€f c t + θ(t)) Here, f c is the carrier frequency, and s(t) represents the continuous-phase modulated carrier wave. Quadrature Modulation (Optional) ...
