Gain Valuable Knowledge on Transmission Principles with New E-Learning Course.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c43365) has announced the addition of E-Learning Course: Transmission Principles to their offering.

"Transmission Principles" introduces the principles of synchronous transmission techniques as employed in modern long-haul networks. The course is designed as preparation for the study of SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) The European counterpart to SONET. See SONET.

SDH - Synchronous Digital Hierarchy
 principles and networks as provided by the other courses in the SyncNet suite.

Course aim: This course provides an introduction to the fundamental concepts that underpin the operation of synchronous transmission networks.

Pre-requisites: Secondary (high) school education in Physics and/or general electronics/electrical engineering background. In the UK, appropriate pre-requisite qualifications are General Certificate of Secondary Education Noun 1. General Certificate of Secondary Education - the basic level of a subject taken in school
GCSE, O level

England - a division of the United Kingdom
 (GCSE) in Physics or BTEC National Vocational Qualification National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) are vocational awards in England & Wales (In Scotland they are known as Scottish Vocational Qualification (SVQ)) that are achieved through assessment and training. They are practical qualifications based on being able to do a job.  (NVQ) at level 2 in Electronics.

"Transmission Principles" forms part of the SyncNet suite of courses.

SyncNet

- is a suite of interactive, multimedia e-learning courses designed to run under Windows[TM] 98, 2000 Professional or XP.

- provides training in the technical aspects of SDH-based broadband networks.

- consists of six separate but integrated courses:

A Transmission principles

B SDH principles

C Optical line systems inc WDM

D SDH payloads

E SDH networks

F SDH network management and maintenance

Target audience:

- Those studying for a career in telecommunications and who require a detailed knowledge of modern optical broadband transmission networks.

- Technical staff involved in the operation, installation or maintenance of SDH-based broadband networks.

The topics covered by this course are:

Bits and bytes Bits and Bytes was the name for two Canadian television series, starring Billy Van, who teaches people the basics of how to use a computer. The first series debuted in 1983 and the second series, called Bits and Bytes 2, in 1991. : Significance of bits, bytes and bit rate

introduction to the principles of digital encoding of text, graphics and speech

typical bandwidth requirements of various types of media.

Transmission modes: Principles of asynchronous Refers to events that are not synchronized, or coordinated, in time. The following are considered asynchronous operations. The interval between transmitting A and B is not the same as between B and C. The ability to initiate a transmission at either end.  and synchronous transmission and comparison of these transmission modes

transport of asynchronously generated traffic over a synchronous link.

TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) A technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path. Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission.  multiplexing: Principles of Time Division Multiplexing (communications) time division multiplexing - (TDM) A type of multiplexing where two or more channels of information are transmitted over the same link by allocating a different time interval ("slot" or "slice") for the transmission of each channel. I.e.  (TDM) and byte interleaving

principles of frame alignment

description of the role of a primary multiplexer

functional description of typical primary multiplexer cards.

2 Mbit/s frame structure: Basic frame structure of a 2 Mbit/s synchronous signal conforming with ITU-T recommendations

derivation of the repetition rate of a 2 Mbit/s frame

principles and use of timeslot interchange

role and basic operation of different types of primary multiplexer and synchronous equipment including terminal multiplexers, Drop and Insert In a multichannel transmission system, a drop and insert is a process that diverts (drops) a portion of the multiplexed aggregate signal at an intermediate point, and introduces (inserts) a different signal for subsequent transmission in the same position, e.g.  multiplexers and 2 Mbit/s cross-connect equipment.

Synchronisation: Principles of synchronisation and timing distribution

effects of inadequate timing control

hierarchical distribution of timing

required timing stability of primary and secondary timing sources

extracting timing from a received signal.

Jitter: Definition of jitter

causes and effects of jitter

minimising jitter: the role and principles of justification.

Transmission networks: Summary of the main components and purpose of a transmission network

introduction to the Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (communications) Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy - (PDH) A transmission system for voice communication using plesiochronous synchronisation.

PDH is the conventional multiplexing technology for network transmission systems.
 (PDH)

comparison of North American and European versions of the PDH

Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (communications, standard) Synchronous Digital Hierarchy - (SDH) An international digital telecommunications network hierarchy which standardises transmission around the bit rate of 51.84 megabits per second, which is also called STS-1.  (SDH) and SONET signals

basic structure of an SDH-based transmission network.
