In telecommunications and computer networking, a communication channel or channel, refers either to a physical transmission medium such as a wire, or to a logical connection over a multiplexed medium such as a radio channel. A channel is used to convey an information signal, for example a digital bit stream, from one or several senders (or transmitters) to one or several receivers. A channel has a certain capacity for transmitting information, often measured by its bandwidth in Hz or its data rate in bits per second.Communicating data from one location to another requires some form of pathway or medium. These pathways, called communication channels, use two types of media: cable (twisted-pair wire, cable, and fiber-optic cable) and broadcast (microwave, satellite, radio, and infrared). Cable or wire line media use physical wires of cables to transmit data and information. Twisted-pair wire and coaxial cables are made of copper, and fiber-optic cable is made of glass.
These are examples of commonly used channel capacity and performance measures:
Spectral bandwidth in Hertz
Symbol rate in baud, pulses/s or symbols/s
Digital bandwidth bit/s measures: gross bit rate (signalling rate), net bit rate (information rate), channel capacity, and maximum throughput
Channel utilization
Link spectral efficiency
Signal-to-noise ratio measures: signal-to-interference ratio, Eb/No, carrier-to-interference ratio in decibel
Bit-error rate (BER), packet-error rate (PER)
Latency in seconds: propagation time, transmission time
Delay jitter

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. Types of Network and
Transmission Media
Mr. Roshan Bhattarai
Kathmandu, Nepal
2. Types of Network (Area Coverage)
1. LAN (Local Area Network)
• Designed to connect personal computers and other
digital devices within 500 meter radius
• Connects few computers in a building/several buildings in
close proximity
• LAN can connect to long distance networks through
Internet
• Lowest network setup cost
• Highest bandwidth of data transfer, usually supports
data transfer rates of 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps
• Eg: Ethernet, wifi
3. 2. MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)
• Network that spans a metropolitan area, usually a city
(within 50 km radius)
• Geographic scope falls between a LAN and a WAN
• Moderate network setup cost
• Moderate bandwidth of data transfer, usually supports
data transfer rates 50 to 100 Mbps
• Eg: Cable TV network, Traffic light monitoring system etc
4. 3. WAN (Wide Area Network)
• Network spans broad geographical distances- entire
region, states, country or the entire world
• Computers connect through public networks, such as
telephone systems, leased lines or satellites
• Network is more vulnerable to threats
• Lowest bandwidth of data transfer, usually supports 10
to 50 Mbps
• Highest network setup cost
• Eg: The most universal and powerful WAN in the
Internet, Telecommunication network etc
5. Transmission Media
• Transmission media is a pathway that carries
the data from sender to receiver device.
• We use different types of cables or waves to transmit
data
• Data is transmitted normally through electrical or
electromagnetic signals
• Electrical signal is in the form of current
• Electromagnetic signal is series of electromagnetic
energy pulses at various frequencies
7. a) Twisted pair cable
• Consists of strands of copper wire twisted in pairs
• Twist is done to reduce the effect the electromagnetic
interference produced during data transmission
• Can obtain speed up to 1 Gbps in short distance
• Cabling is limited to a maximum recommended run of
100 meters
• Comparatively cheaper, less capacity
• Simple to install
• Usually used in LANs
8. b) Coaxial Cable
• Consists of thickly insulated copper wire
• Can transmit larger volume of data than TPC
• Can obtain speed up to 1 Gbps
• Comparatively expensive and higher quality than TPC
• Simple to install
• Usually used in LANs and MANs
9. c) Fiber-Optics (Optical fiber)
• Consists of strands of hair thin plastic/glass filaments
• Data are transmitted into pulses of light by a laser device
(Total Internal Reflection technology is used)
• Very high data transfer speed compared to other cables
• Expensive and better quality transfer
• Can obtain speed up to several trillions bits per second
• installation & maintenance is difficult
• Used in MANs and WANs
10. a) Microwave (Terrestrial and Satellite)
• Electromagnetic waves ranging in frequencies between 1
to 300 GHz are normally called micro waves
• Microwaves are considered to be very short radio waves
(high frequency and high-energy waves)
• Transmits high frequency signals through the atmosphere
• Widely used for high volume, long distance
communication
• Microwave signals follow straight line and do not bend
with curvature of the earth
• Transmissions (Relay) stations be positioned about 30
miles apart for long distance (terrestrial microwave)
• For very long and geographically dispersed transmission,
Communication satellites are used as relay stations
11. • Satellites are in the geostationary orbit which is 22000
miles above the earth
• Satellites operates as repeaters with receiving antenna,
transponder and transmitting of signals
12. b) Radio Waves
• Electromagnetic waves ranging in frequencies between 3
KHz and 1 GHz are normally called radio waves
• Radio waves are the lowest-energy, lowest-frequency
and longest-wavelength electromagnetic waves.
• Radio waves are Omni-directional
• When an antenna transmits radio waves, they are
propagated in all directions, sending and receiving
antennas do not have to be aligned.
• A sending antenna send waves that can be received by
any receiving antenna.
• Radio waves, particularly with those of low and medium
frequencies, can penetrate walls.
13. • The Omni-directional characteristics of radio waves make
them useful for multicasting in which there is one sender
but many receivers.
• AM and FM radio, television, cordless phones etc are
examples of multicasting.
14. c) Infrared Waves
• Infrared waves are used in extremely small distance
communication as they cannot go through obstacles
• The range of frequency of these waves is 300GHz to
400THz.
• These waves are used in TV remotes, keyboards, wireless
mouse, printer, etc.
• When we use infrared remote control, we do not
interfere with the use of the remote by our neighbours.
• useless for long-range communication.
• cannot use infrared waves outside a building because the
sun's rays contain infrared waves that can interfere with
the communication.
