PREFACE
P REFACE
Now day the scenario is of world wide reach and without any internet connection it is not possible. In the present time many companies are providing USB facilities of net
connect. They all have their different schemes and facilities to persuade their customer. Under this topic I will study that, what is the customer satisfaction level of reliance USB and Tata Indicom USB consumers. My study will be based on the consumer perception about the internet service provided by these two companies. The study will find out level of satisfaction in comparative manner.
A computer without internet connection is like a mobile phone without sim. We have to connect it to the net connect and see it actually come alive now, access internet email on the move with a speed that is four time faster than dial-up.
I hope my study will provided sufficient information about the perception, preference, and level of satisfaction about the following services of reliance USB and Tata Indicom USB NET connector. My study will provide the comparative information of following two companies. It may be helpful for the organization to offer the core consumer of their desired services.

prefer?
What is Universal Serial Bus?
A USB Series “A” plug, the most common USB plug
In information technology, Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus standard to
connect devices to a host computer. USB was designed to allow many peripherals to be
connected using a single standardized interface socket and to improve plug and play
capabilities by allowing hot swapping; that is, by allowing devices to be connected and
disconnected without rebooting the computer or turning off the device. Other convenient
features include providing power to low-consumption devices, eliminating the need for
an external power supply; and allowing many devices to be used without requiring
manufacturer-specific device drivers to be installed.
USB is intended to replace many varieties of serial and parallel ports. USB can connect
computer peripherals such as mice, keyboards, PDAs, gamepads and joysticks, scanners,
digital cameras, printers, personal media players, flash drives, and external hard drives.
For many of those devices, USB has become the standard connection method. USB was
designed for personal computers, but it has become commonplace on other devices such
as PDAs and video game consoles, and as a power cord between a device and an AC
adapter plugged into a wall plug for charging. As of 2008, there are about 2 billion USB
devices sold per year, and about 6 billion total sold to date.[1]
The design of USB is standardized by the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF), an
industry standards body incorporating leading companies from the computer and
electronics industries. Notable members have included Agree (now merged with LSI
Corporation), Apple Inc., Hewlett-Packard, Intel, NEC, and Microsoft.

HISTORY
The USB 1.0 specification was introduced in 1994. USB was created by the core group of
companies that consisted of Intel, Compaq, Microsoft, Digital, IBM, and Northern
Telecom. Intel produced the UHCI host controller and open software stack; Microsoft
produced a USB software stack for Windows and co-authored the OHCI host controller
specification with National Semiconductor and Compaq; Philips produced early USB-
Audio; and TI produced the most widely used hub chips. USB was intended to replace
the multitude of connectors at the back of PCs, as well as to simplify software
configuration of communication devices.
The USB 2.0 specification was released in April 2000 and was standardized by the USB-
IF at the end of 2001. Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Lucent (now LSI Corporation since its
merger with Lucent spinoff Agree Systems), Microsoft, NEC, and Philips jointly led the
initiative to develop a higher data transfer rate, 480 Mbit/s, than the 1.0 specification of
12 Mbit/s. The USB 3.0 specification was released on November 17, 2008 by the USB
3.0 Promoter Group. It has a transfer rate of up to 10 times faster than the USB 2.0
version and has been dubbed the Super Speed USB. Equipment conforming with any
version of the standard will also work with devices designed to any previous specification
(a property known as backward compatibility).
Overview
A USB system has an asymmetric design, consisting of a host, a multitude of downstream
USB ports, and multiple peripheral devices connected in a tiered-star topology.
Additional USB hubs may be included in the tiers, allowing branching into a tree
structure with up to five tier levels. A USB host may have multiple host controllers and
each host controller may provide one or more USB ports. Up to 127 devices, including
the hub devices, may be connected to a single host controller. USB devices are linked in
series through hubs. There always exists one hub known as the root hub, which is built
into the host controller. So-called "sharing hubs", which allow multiple computers to
access the same peripheral device(s), also exist and work by switching access between
PCs, either automatically or manually. They are popular in small-office environments. In
network terms, they converge rather than diverge branches.
A physical USB device may consist of several logical sub-devices that are referred to as
device functions. A single device may provide several functions, for example, a webcam
(video device function) with a built-in microphone (audio device function).USB
endpoints actually reside on the connected device: the channels to the host are referred to
as pipes. USB device communication is based on pipes (logical channels). Pipes are
connections from the host controller to a logical entity on the device named an endpoint.
The term endpoint is occasionally used to incorrectly refer to the pipe. A USB device can
have up to 32 active pipes, 16 into the host controller and 16 out of the controller. Each
endpoint can transfer data in one direction only, either into or out of the device, so each
pipe is uni-directional. Endpoints are grouped into interfaces and each interface is
associated with a single device function. An exception to this is endpoint zero, which is
used for device configuration and which is not associated with any interface.
When a USB device is first connected to a USB host, the USB device enumeration
process is started. The enumeration starts by sending a reset signal to the USB device.
The speed of the USB device is determined during the reset signaling. After reset, the
USB device's information is read by the host, then the device is assigned a unique 7-bit
address. If the device is supported by the host, the device drivers needed for
communicating with the device are loaded and the device is set to a configured state. If
the USB host is restarted, the enumeration process is repeated for all connected devices.
The host controller directs traffic flow to devices, so no USB device can transfer any data
on the bus without an explicit request from the host controller. In USB 2.0, host
controller polls the bus for traffic, usually in a round-robin fashion. In Super Speed USB,
connected devices can request service from host.
Device classes
USB defines class codes used to identify a device’s functionality and to load a device
driver based on that functionality. This enables a device driver writer to support devices
from different manufacturers that comply with a given class code.

USB signaling
USB supports following data rates:
The Full Speed rate of 12 Mbit/s (1.5 MB/s) is the basic USB data rate defined by
USB 1.1. All USB hubs support Full Speed.
A Low Speed rate of 1.5 Mbit/s (187.5 kb/s) is defined by USB 1.0. It is very
similar to full speed operation except that each bit takes 8 times as long to
transmit. It is intended primarily to save cost in low-bandwidth Human Interface
Devices (HID) such as keyboards, mice, and joysticks.
A High-Speed (USB 2.0) rate of 480 Mbit/s (60 MB/s) was introduced in 2001.
All high-speed devices are capable of falling back to full-speed operation if
necessary.
Experimental data rate:
A Super Speed (USB 3.0) rate of 5.0 Gbit/s (625 MB/s). The USB 3.0
specification was released by Intel and its partners in August 2008, according to
early reports from CNET news. Products using the 3.0 specification are expected
to arrive in 2009 or 2010.
USB signals are transmitted on a twisted pair data cable with 90Ω ±15% impedance,
labeled D+ and D−. These collectively use half-duplex differential signaling to combat
the effects of electromagnetic noise on longer lines. Transmitted signal levels are 0.0–0.3
volts for low and 2.8–3.6 volts for high in Full Speed (FS) and Low Speed (LS) modes,
and -10–10 mV for low and 360–440 mV for high in High Speed (HS) mode. In FS mode
the cable wires are not terminated, but the HS mode has termination of 45Ω to ground, or
90Ω differential to match the data cable impedance.
A USB connection is always between a host or hub at the "A" connector end, and a
device or hub's upstream port at the other end. The host includes 15 kΩ pull-down
resistors on each data line. When no device is connected, this pulls both data lines low
into the so-called "single-ended zero" state (SE0 in the USB documentation), and
indicates a reset or disconnected connection.
A USB device pulls one of the data lines high with a 1.5 kΩ resistor. This overpowers
one of the pull-down resistors in the host and leaves the data lines in an idle state called
"J". The choice of data line indicates a device's speed support; full-speed devices pull D+
high, while low-speed devices pull D− high.
USB data is transmitted by toggling the data lines between the J state and the opposite K
state. USB encodes data using the NRZI convention; a 0 bit is transmitted by toggling the
data lines from J to K or vice-versa, while a 1 bit is transmitted by leaving the data lines
as-is. To ensure a minimum density of signal transitions, USB uses bit stuffing; an extra 0
bit is inserted into the data stream after any appearance of six consecutive 1 bits. Seven
consecutive 1 bits is always an error.
A USB frame begins with an 8-bit synchronization sequence 00000001. That is, after the
initial idle state J, the data lines toggle KJKJKJKK. The final 1 bit (repeated K state)
marks the end of the sync pattern and the beginning of the USB frame proper.
A USB frame's end, called EOP (end-of-packet), is indicated by the transmitter driving 2
bit times of SE0 (D+ and D- both below max) and 1 bit time of J state. After this, the
transmitter ceases to drive the D+/D− lines and the aforementioned resistors hold it in the
J (idle) state. A receiver may take extra time to decode the SE0 state, and will see the first
bit time as a repetition of the last data bit. Since USB frames are always a multiple of 8
bits long, this extra "dribble bit" can be detected and ignored.
A USB bus is reset using a prolonged (10 to 20 milliseconds) SE0 signal.
USB 2.0 devices use a special protocol during reset, called "chirping", to negotiate the
High-Speed mode with the host/hub. A device that is HS capable first connects as an FS
device (D+ pulled high), but upon receiving a USB RESET (both D+ and D- driven
LOW by host for 10 to 20 mS) it pulls the D- line high. If the host/hub is also HS
capable, it chirps (returns alternating J and K states on D- and D+ lines) letting the device
know that the hub will operate at High Speed.
Clock tolerance is 480.00 Mbit/s ±500 ppm, 12.000 Mbit/s ±2500 ppm, 1.50 Mbit/s
±15000 ppm.
Though Hi-Speed devices are commonly referred to as "USB 2.0" and advertised as "up
to 480 Mbit/s", not all USB 2.0 devices are Hi-Speed. The USB-IF certifies devices and
provides licenses to use special marketing logos for either "Basic-Speed" (low and full)
or Hi-Speed after passing a compliance test and paying a licensing fee. All devices are
tested according to the latest spec, so recently-compliant Low-Speed devices are also 2.0
devices.
The actual throughput currently (2006) attained with real devices is about two thirds of
the maximum theoretical bulk data transfer rate of 53.248 MB/s. Typical hi-speed USB
devices operate at lower speeds, often about 3 MB/s overall, sometimes up to 10–20
MB/s.[7]
USB packets
USB communication takes the form of packets. Initially, all packets are sent from the
host, via the root hub and possibly more hubs, to devices. Some of those packets direct a
device to send some packets in reply.
After the sync field described above, all packets are made of 8-bit bytes, transmitted
least-significant bit first. The first byte is a packet identifier (PID) byte. The PID is
actually 4 bits; the byte consists of the 4-bit PID followed by its bitwise complement.
This redundancy helps detect errors. (Note also that a PID byte contains at most four
consecutive 1 bits, and thus will never need bit-stuffing, even when combined with the
final 1 bit in the sync byte. However, the OUT PID byte ends with three consecutive 1
bits, so if the following USB device address begins with three 1 bits, bit-stuffing will be
required.)
Packets come in three basic types, each with a different format and CRC (cyclic
redundancy check):

RESEARCH PROBLEM
RESEARCH PROBLEM
When any type of the research is being done, then research problem must be cleared. It is
said if the problem is clear, it means half problem is solved. The main problem is this
type of study is that is quite hard task to measure the accurate gap between customer
expectations and the various life insurance services of LIC. Actually the gap analysis
usually arises due to the differences between adequate and desired service lower the zone
of tolerance. So for conducting this type of study usually these problems are arises:-
Not know what customer expect actually.
It is hard to convince the customers to give fair response.
It is practically hard to measure the customer satisfact
Customer may have serious expectations that may be either higher or lower than
the standards set by the organization.

concretely the result is good.
Results of this study and findings are applicable only for Bareilly city and near by
areas. The results may be different of this study in another place.
One of the limitation of this study is that of time limitation due to which it is not
possible to do the detailed study.
The sample size was taken only 40; it is difficult to say anything concretely.
Absence of professional researcher and team was another limitation of the study.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
LIC is already a leading company of Insurance in India. The consumer responses in the
project report also indicate that LIC is a capable insurance company justifying with its
consumers in real manner. It is found in the study most of the consumers are satisfy with
the LIC services. LIC is providing adequate service which really consumer wants. But
there are some areas where LIC need to improve so that it may meet the customer
objectives easily. We know very well every customer have their own view regarding
thing, LIC services is one of them. In conclusion it is cleared that there is a low gap
between customer expectation and the LIC offered facilities. But it does not mean that
LIC is perfect, at many areas gap is found and LIC need to improve in that areas. There is
also a limitation of the study because 50 responder is not enough to decide anything. It
depends fully responder honesty also their response.
