商品描述

Description:

For a one-semester/quarter survey course in Introduction to Data Communications, Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Computer Engineering Technology, or Computer Network Management. Also suitable for a two-semester course with extensive laboratories. Requires some prerequisite course work in trigonometry, communications (including modulation techniques and Fourier analysis).

Concentrating on protocol differences and the reasons for different protocols, this straightforward text provides a solid overview in data communications, covering a wide range of subjects in sufficient depth to provide students with a basic, working knowledge of the field.
