BA 471 – Telecommunications and Networking
Dr. V.T. Raja
Oregon State University
As presented in Dr. Marshall’s BA471 class, Winter 2006
Outline
• Introduction– Analogy with effective human communication
• 5-layer Network ModelA theoretical framework for our day-to-day interactions on the Internet
Some Basic Characteristics of Effective Human Communication
• Sender/Receiver
• Messages (Words)
• Transmission MediaAir/Printed Page
• Less noisy room (or) talk loud enough
• Speak same language or have an Interpreter
Some Basic Characteristics of Telecommunication Networks
• Source; Destination – Host
• Signals (Digital/Analog) – Modulation (digital to analog)– Demodulation (analog to digital)– Done by a Modem
• Transmission Media– (Wired/Wireless)
• Communications Protocols/Standards
Wired Transmission Media
• Coaxial (like cable TV)• Twisted Pair
– Copper– Shielded and twisted to reduce noise
• Fiber Optic– Much faster– Able to go longer distances without a repeater– Uses light not electricity– Multi-color lights vastly increases capacity– Expensive
Wireless Transmission
• Infrared (as in a TV remote)• Radio Signals (as in microwave transmissions)• Satellites
– http://www.orbitaldebris.jsc.nasa.gov/index.html– GEOS: Geosynchronous Earth Orbiting Satellites –
stationary orbit at 22,300 miles above the Earth– LEOS: Low Earth Orbiting Satellites– Closer to the Earth and reachable from mobile
devices– 200-1,000 miles above the Earth– Not stationary, goes around the Earth in about 90
minutes– 60-70 LEOS are needed to cover the Earth

A Multiplexer (MUX) consolidates several (many?) slow links A Multiplexer (MUX) consolidates several (many?) slow links (local networks or single nodes) connecting them to a fast link (local networks or single nodes) connecting them to a fast link (e.g. a WAN such as the Internet).(e.g. a WAN such as the Internet).

Theoretical Framework: 5-layer network model
• Application Layer (Layer-5)
• Transport Layer
• Network Layer
• Data Link Layer
• Physical Layer (Layer-1)
Protocols and addresses used at different layers of the 5-layer network model
• HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) operates at the Application Layer. – Example of an application layer address:
www.bus.oregonstate.edu
• TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) operates at the Transport Layer.– Example of a transport layer default port address/port
ID: 80 (Web); 25(E-mail)
Protocols and addresses used at different layers of the 5-layer network model
• IP (Internet Protocol) operates at the Network Layer. – Example of an IP address: 128.192.64.224
• Ethernet operates at the data link layer. – Example of a DLL address: 00-B0-D0-B4-54-13
Application and Transport Layers
• User interfaces with application software using: – Application layer (e.g., web/e-mail) address
• Transport layer’s major function is:– Packetizing
• Breaking large messages into smaller packets at source • Reassembling packets at final destination• Creates/appends TCP header
– Packet #– Source/Destination Port ID
Network Layer
• Major functions of IP at network layer are – Addressing and – Routing
• IP prepares IP header which contains:
– Source/Destination IP Address and– Routing Information
Network Layer (Continued)
• Addressing– DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) Server
• Assigns IP addresses to client machines requesting an IP address
– DNS (Domain Name Service) Server• Similar to directory assistance – used for finding
destination IP addresses.
• Routing– Routing tables; Routers (Tracert); Routing
Protocols
Data Link Layer
• Major functions of Data Link Layer are:– Media Access Control
• Handling message collisions– Error Detection– Error Correction– Message Delineation
• Identifying beginning and ending of packets – since all computer transmissions go out as 0s and 1s over the physical layer
• DL layer appends a DL header and DL Trailer
Physical Layer
• Wired Media/Wireless Media: Examples– Twisted pair; Coaxial; Fiber Optic Cables– Microwave; Satellites and Cell phones
• Internetworking Devices: Examples– Hubs; Multiplexers– DSL/Cable Modems– Switches; Routers
