    • CDMA

    • TDMA

    • FDMA

    Correct Answer
    A. CDMA
    Explanation
    CDMA stands for Code Division Multiple Access, which is a digital cellular technology that allows multiple users to share the same frequency band simultaneously by assigning a unique code to each user. This enables efficient use of the available bandwidth and increases the capacity of the network. In CDMA, each user's signal is spread over the entire frequency band, and the receiver uses the same code to separate and decode the desired signal. This allows for better call quality, increased capacity, and improved security compared to other multiple access techniques like TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) and FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access).

    TDD stands for ______.

    Correct Answer
    Time Division Duplex
    Explanation
    TDD stands for Time Division Duplex. Time Division Duplex is a communication technique where the transmission and reception of signals occur at different time intervals within the same frequency band. This allows for two-way communication using a single frequency, with the transmitter and receiver taking turns to transmit and receive data. TDD is commonly used in wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to enable simultaneous two-way communication between devices.

    What way of  communication is being used in television broadcast?

    • Duplex

    • Simplex

    • Half-duplex

    Correct Answer
    A. Simplex
    Explanation
    Television broadcast uses simplex communication. Simplex communication is a one-way communication method where information flows in only one direction. In the case of television broadcast, the information is transmitted from the broadcasting station to the viewers' television sets. The viewers cannot send any feedback or response back to the broadcasting station through the same channel. Therefore, simplex communication is the appropriate way of communication for television broadcast.

    Rate this question:

    What method of communication allows partlies to communicate in two-ways but not simultaneously?

    • Duplex

    • Simplex

    • Half-duplex

    Correct Answer
    A. Half-duplex
    Explanation
    Half-duplex communication allows parties to communicate in two-ways but not simultaneously. This means that each party can send and receive messages, but only one party can transmit at a time while the other party listens. It is like a walkie-talkie where one person speaks and then waits for the other person to respond. This method is commonly used in radio communication, where there is a need for back-and-forth communication but not at the same time.

    In FDMA,  used frequency band is divided into different carriers and the same number of carriers is used for both uplink and downlink.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access), the used frequency band is divided into different carriers. These carriers are then assigned to different users for communication. In this process, the same number of carriers is used for both the uplink (transmission from the user to the base station) and the downlink (transmission from the base station to the user). Therefore, the statement "In FDMA, used frequency band is divided into different carriers and the same number of carriers is used for both uplink and downlink" is true.

    In CDMA, each subscriber adds to the interference in the cell untill the interference reaches a certain limit or threshold.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), each subscriber contributes to the interference in the cell until the interference reaches a certain limit or threshold. This is because CDMA allows multiple users to share the same frequency band by assigning unique codes to each user's signal. However, as more users are added, the interference level increases, which can degrade the overall performance of the system. Therefore, it is true that each subscriber adds to the interference in CDMA.

    FDD is advantageous for using minimal frequency resource.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    FDD stands for Frequency Division Duplexing, which is a method used in telecommunications to allow simultaneous transmission of signals in both directions on the same frequency band. It divides the available frequency spectrum into two separate bands, one for the uplink (transmitting from the user to the base station) and one for the downlink (transmitting from the base station to the user). FDD allows for full duplex communication, but it does not necessarily minimize the use of frequency resources.

    In CDMA, the capacity of a cell is a function of power allowed within the cell instead of the available slots in the air interface.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), the capacity of a cell is determined by the power allowed within the cell, rather than the available slots in the air interface. This means that the number of users that can be accommodated in a cell is dependent on the power that can be allocated to each user, rather than the number of available time slots. Therefore, the statement "In CDMA, the capacity of a cell is a function of power allowed within the cell instead of the available slots in the air interface" is true.

  • 22. 

    In FDD, collision may occur during communication while in TDD, collision can be avoided between the uplink and the downlink.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    In Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD), both the uplink and the downlink use separate frequency bands, which means that collision can be avoided as the communication is happening on different frequencies. On the other hand, in Time Division Duplexing (TDD), the uplink and the downlink share the same frequency band, but they are separated by time slots. This means that collision can occur during communication if the uplink and downlink transmissions overlap in time. Therefore, the statement that collision can be avoided between the uplink and the downlink in TDD is incorrect.

    An operator needs ______ channels to be able to build a high-speed, high-capacity network.

    • 8-12

    • 5-9

    • 3-4

    Correct Answer
    A. 3-4
    Explanation
    An operator needs 3-4 channels to be able to build a high-speed, high-capacity network. This means that the operator requires a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 channels in order to create a network that can handle large amounts of data at a fast speed. Having fewer than 3 channels would limit the network's capacity and speed, while having more than 4 channels may not significantly improve the network's performance.
