Communication channels:
The choice of communication channel depends on several factors, of which data transmission speed is relatively important.
Data transmission speed depends on band rate and band width of the communication channel.

Transmission speed: Band rate:Refers to the number of discrete signal
elements (bands) transmitted per sec. Band width:Refers to the frequency capacity of the channel
and is expressed in bits per sec (bps).

Networks needs to interconnect at a distance by a form of point to point or point to multiple point connected media
A network is a group of computers connected together in such a way as to allow
Networks that are interconnected have proven to be low cost, reliable, and efficient means of communicating at a distance

Key Network Terminology Node: anything connected to the network, usually a
computer, but it could be a printer or a scanner Segment: any portion of a network that is separated
by a switch, bridge or a router from another part of a network.
Backbone: the main cabling of a network that all of the segment connect to. Usually, the backbone is capable of carrying more information than the individual segments.
Topology: The way each node is physically connected to the network
Networkarchitecture

Common Topologies - Bus Bus: each node is chained (connected one
right after the other) along the same backbone. Information sent from a node travels along the backbone until it reaches its destination node.
![Page 11: Data communications](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070503/56816390550346895dd48583/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Common Topologies - Ring Ring: Similar to a bus network, rings have
nodes chained, but the end of the network in a ring topology comes back around to the first node, creating a complete circuit.

Common Topologies - Star star :In a star network, each node is
connected to a central device called a hub(host computer ). The hub takes a signal that comes from any node and passes it along to all the other nodes in the network.

Network Hardware Bridge: device to interconnect two LANs that
use the SAME logical link control protocol but may use different medium access control protocols.
Router: device to interconnect SIMILAR networks, e.g. similar protocols and workstations and servers
Gateway: device to interconnect DISSIMILAR protocols and servers.

Switches:
Allow different nodes of a network to communicate directly with each other.
Allow several users to send information over a network at the same time without slowing each other down.

WANs and LANs
![Page 16: Data communications](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070503/56816390550346895dd48583/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Major Categories of Networks Local Area Networks (LAN) A network of computers that are in the same general
physical location, within a building or a campusare linked through a topology they create a local area network (LAN).
Wide Area Networks (WAN) If the LANs are connected across a region or a wide area
network (WAN) is created when computers are connected across the county.
Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN) interconnects a number of (LANs) using a high-capacity
backbone technology and provides up-link services to WANs and the internet .
![Page 17: Data communications](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070503/56816390550346895dd48583/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Network communication technology:
LANs, MANs, WANs require a technology that allows fast communication of the signals. Ethernet is the common LAN technology
It is based on a bus topology in which computers share the same cable to send data.
Bit net and internet are other technologies which are characteristic of WANs.

The internetHistory: The internet is the largest computer network
system in existence because it connects users all over the world.
Software was then developed to facilitate the communication process. This software is referred to as transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP)
![Page 20: Data communications](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070503/56816390550346895dd48583/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
History:
TCP:Manages the packets and their reassembly. IP:Components ensures the packets arrive at their
appropriate remote computers.

Computer in radiology:
In 1955 computers were used to calculate radiation dose distributions in cancer patients. Today, computer applications in radiology include two categories imaging and nonimaging applications.
![Page 28: Data communications](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070503/56816390550346895dd48583/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Imaging applications:
They are those modalities in which the information acquired from the patient is subjected to computer processing. This involves digital image processing techniques to produce digital images. These images can be stored or displayed.
Several methods for creating images: computed radiography, digital fluroscopy, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

Communication protocol standards: Connectivity: refers to a measure of the effectiveness
and efficiency of computer based devices to communicate and share information and messages without human intervention. It is achieved by the use of communication protocol standards.
Protocols: deals with the specifics of how a certain task will be done.
Standard: it is an approved reference model and protocol determined by standard setting groups for building or developing products and services.
