Difference between simplex, half simplex and full simplex
Answers
Answer:
There are three ways for transmitting data from one point to another.
Explanation:
Simplex : In simplex mode the communication can take place in one
direction. The receiver receives the signal from the transmitting device.
In this mode the flow of information is Uni-directional. Hence it is rarely
used for data communication.
Half-duplex : In half-duplex mode the communication channel is used
in both directions, but only in one direction at a time. Thus a half-duplex
line can alternately send and receive data.
Full-duplex : In full duplex the communication channel is used in both
directions at the same time. Use of full-duplex line improves the
efficiency as the line turnaround time required in half-duplex arrangement
is eliminated. Example of this mode of transmission is the telephone
line.
