The Physical Layer
• Deals with “transmission media”
• Digital signal into a waveform
• Modulation/Demodulation
• Sometimes referred to as “PHY” in device drivers

The Physical Layer
• Fourier analysis?
• Transmit an ASCII binary signal down the line, made up
of harmonics
• The various harmonics are attenuated differently, causing
noise
• Range of frequencies that can be transmitted w/o
attenuation is the bandwidth

• For example, telephone wire might have bandwidth of
1MHz but limited by filter to 3.1kHz

Sampling
• Digital signal converted to analog
• Sometimes modulate carrier for long distance
• How to get back digital signal? Sample
• How often do you need to sample?
• Quantization: A/D conversion. Can add noise
• Reconstruction is interpolation

Nyquist Theorem
• If arbitrary signal run through low-pass filter of
bandwidth H, can be reconstructed with 2H samples.
Sampling faster pointless, as higher frequencies already
gone. If V discrete levels, maximumrate =
2Hlog2V bits/sec
• This assumes noiseless channel
• Thermal noise always present
• Signal-to-noise ratio

![Page 8: ECE 435 { Network Engineering Lecture 2 - web.eece.maine.eduweb.eece.maine.edu/~vweaver/classes/ece435_2016f/... · The Physical Layer Deals with \transmission media" Digital signal](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071103/5fdcc28f69d1b95ec82aaf75/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Signal power = S, N power =N, S/N
• Usually logarithmic, presented in dB
• Shannon: max data rate of a noisy channel with
bandwidth H Hz and S/N is maxbps = Hlog2(1+S/N)
• Example 1: 3000Hz bw with 30dB (typical of old POTS,
limited to 30kbps)
30dB = 10log(S/N), S/N = 103
3000 ∗ log2(1 + 103) = 29.9kbps
• Example 2: 3000Hz bw with 33dB

33dB = 10log(S/N), S/N = 1995
3000 ∗ log2(1 + 1995) = 32.9kbps
• Why are CDs 44.1kHz?

Baseband vs Broadband
• Baseband is a digital signal that can be put directly on
the wire
• Broadband requires modulation. Often modulated to
use a higher frequency so that multiple channels can
share same medium (cable TV, radio, etc)

Line Coding
• Goals of line coding:
◦ prevent baseline wandering
◦ eliminate DC components (waste energy)
◦ self-synchronization: (Synchronization: what if send
long stream of zeros)
◦ error detection/correction
◦ avoid noise/interference

Transmission Impairments
• Attenuation: gradual loss of energy. How to fix?
Amplification
• Fading: time varying source of attenuation (varies with
time, location, etc). Multipath fading (reflections),
shadow fading (obstacle)
• Distortion: different frequency components have
different propagation delay
• Interference: unwanted signals added to desired signal
• Noise: random fluctuations of an analog signal Often

Media Types
• Guided (copper wire, fiber)
• Unguided (radio, microwaves)

Twisted Pair
• Two wires, twisted together
• Can be shielded too, usually isn’t due to expense
• Why twisted? Parallel wires make antenna
• POTS
• Several kilometers, several Mb/s over such distances
• Cat3 = phone lines (16MHz)
16
![Page 18: ECE 435 { Network Engineering Lecture 2 - web.eece.maine.eduweb.eece.maine.edu/~vweaver/classes/ece435_2016f/... · The Physical Layer Deals with \transmission media" Digital signal](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071103/5fdcc28f69d1b95ec82aaf75/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Cat4 = up to 20MHz
• Cat5 = more twists (up to 100MHz)
• Cat6 and higher (250MHz) gigabit
• Cat7 = up to 600MHz
• Not only faster cables, but use more than one set of
twisted pairs. 8 wires in typical Ethernet. Two pairs
used 10/100, four pairs for gigabit
• Plenum (fire resistant) and shielded cables
17
![Page 19: ECE 435 { Network Engineering Lecture 2 - web.eece.maine.eduweb.eece.maine.edu/~vweaver/classes/ece435_2016f/... · The Physical Layer Deals with \transmission media" Digital signal](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071103/5fdcc28f69d1b95ec82aaf75/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Can have solid or stranded wires. Stranded bends around
corners better
• Cat5 the four different pairs have differing numbers of
twists to avoid crosstalk
• Cat6 originally had “spline” to separate cables but now
most don’t
• Mostly there are specifications that you have to meet
(resistance, cross-talk, inductance, delay) and as long as
you test to that you are fine. Standards documents but
have to pay to see.

Coaxial Cable
• TODO: diagram?
• 50 or 75 ohm
• copper core, insulating material, outer conductor, outer
insulator
• Bandwidth close to 1GHz - 3GHz
• Used in old Ethernet, as well as cable modems

Fiber Optics
• TODO: diagram
• Light source, transmission medium, detector
• Total internal reflection/refraction. Bend too much and
light will leak out. Straight can go for kilometers with
no loss
• How do they do sub-sea cables? Pump recharge lasers

• Single mode (narrow, more like wave guide, faster) vs
multimode (lots bouncing around) fibers
• attenuation in dB = 10log10transmittedpowerreceivedpower
• Three common wavelength bands, 0.05, 1.30 and 1.44
microns
• chromatic dispersion. pulse spreads out as it travels.
special cosh solitons to avoid this
• Often packed with fiber, glass with different index of
refraction, plastic protection

• Often dug up by backhoes. How to fix? Sockets, lost
20% of light. Mechanical splice, 10%. Can fuse and
melt for smaller
• Sources: LED or laser. LEDs worse at rate, and distance,
but are cheaper and last longer
• Maine 3-ring binder
• Network, a ring. Passive tap (no regeneration) active
(reads and re-sends)

Fiber vs Copper
• Fewer repeaters
• No power surges or power failures
• No corrosion
• Thin and lightweight: more room in ducts
• Difficult to wiretap
• Downside (often one-way, can’t bend too sharp, more
skills to make)

Wireless
• Speed of light in vacuum 3× 108m/s (foot/ns)
• In wire/fiber more like 2/3 of value, freq dependent
• λf = c
• Include chart? Radio, microwave, infrared, visible, UV,
X-ray, gamma ray why aren’t UV, x-ray and gamma rays
used much?

Radio Transmission
• Radio from 3kHz to 1GHz. VLF (3-30kHz) LF (30-
300kHz) MF (300kHz-3MHz) HF (3-30MHz) VHF
(30MHz-300MHz) UHF (300MHz-3GHz)
• Can travel long distances, omni-directional (go in all
directions)
why is omni bad? interference, everyone can hear
• Inverse square law
• High frequencies go in straight lights and bounce off

• Government regulated
• VLF, LF and MF follow ground
• MF (AM radio) pass through buildings easily, but low
bandwidth
• VHF can bounce off ionosphere

Microwaves
• 1GHz to 300GHz (overlap with UHF)
• GPS at 1.2-1.6Hz, Wifi 2.4GHz and 5GHz
• Microwaves, above 100MHz travel in nearly straight
lines, can be focused. Before fiber optics transmitted
across country like this. Multipath fading. Up to 10GHz
used, but above 4GHz absorbed by water (only few
inches long)
• Absorbed by water, as in microwave oven.
• Benefits: no need to dig up right of way (MCI, microwave
