Simplex
The simplest method of electronic communication is
referred to as simplex.
This type of communication is one-way. Examples are:
Radio
TV broadcasting
Beeper (personal receiver) / Pager

Full Duplex
Most electronic communication is two-way and is
referred to as duplex.
When people can talk and listen simultaneously, it is
called full duplex. The telephone is an example of this
type of communication.

Digital Signals
Digital signals change in steps or in discrete
increments.
Most digital signals use binary or two-state codes.
Examples are:
Telegraph (Morse code)
Continuous wave (CW) code
Serial binary code (used in computers)

Digital Signals
Many transmissions are of signals that originate in
converter.
The data can then be transmitted and processed by
computers and other digital circuits.

from airplanes or missiles can be detected and used to guide
missiles to targets.

signals are transmitted by an infrared LED to the TV receiver to
change channels, set the volume, and perform other functions.

Red is low-frequency or long-wavelength light
Violet is high-frequency or short-wavelength light.
Light waves very high frequency enables them to
handle a tremendous amount of information (the
bandwidth of the baseband signals can be very wide).
