understanding physical limitations 1.2 Introduction
2
• ways of data transmission • acoustic • mechanical • electric • radio • optical
understanding physical limitations 1.2 What can we see here?
3
understanding physical limitations 1.2 Resistor
4
• what is a resistor? • something that conducts electrons • something that resists the flow of electrons • the amount of resistance is measured in Ohm
• invented by Georg Simon Ohm
understanding physical limitations 1.2 What can we see here?
5
understanding physical limitations 1.2 Capacitor
6
• what is a capacitor? • something that stores electrons in a voltage level • basically two surfaces without connection • capacity is measured in Farad
• invented by Michael Faraday
understanding physical limitations 1.2 What can we see here?
7
understanding physical limitations 1.2 Inductor
8
• what is an inductor? • a part that creates a magnetic field nearby • inductor is measured in Henry
• invented by Joseph Henry

understanding physical limitations 1.2 Wire
10
• what is a wire? • typical a low resistance conductor for electricity • additional it has the properties of a capacitor, an inductor
understanding physical limitations 1.2 Wire
11
• what is a wire? • typical a low resistance conductor for electricity • additional it has the properties of a capacitor, an inductor
• parameters of a wire (uniform circuit) • inductance per unit length L‘ = L / s • capacitance per unit length C‘ = C / s • resistance per unit length R‘ = R / s • conductance per unit length G‘ = G / s
understanding physical limitations 1.2 What is the impact of having a uniform circuit?
12
• impacts • signal looses strength • signal timing may be affected • an echo can influence following transmissions
understanding physical limitations 1.2 Physical implications
13
• characteristic of a wave impedance
• factor of the reflected wave
• speed of propagation
