Prerequisite
Representation of information
Communication system converts information into electrical
electromagnetic/ optical signals appropriate for the channel.
Analog information can be directly converted to signals that can
propagate through channel (analog systems)
Analog information can also be converted bits or digits that can further
be converted to the signal bound to transmit through channel.
Analog signals are converted to bits using A/ D converters
Categories of Communication Systems
Based on method of information representation
Analog
AM / FM radio
TV broadcasting
Digital
Computer networks
Cellular network
Based on type of channel
Wired (LAN, landline telephone, etc.)
Wireless (cellular network, radio, TV, etc.)
Based on the direction of communication
Simplex – one way communication (radio, TV, etc.)
Half duplex – two way communication, one way at a time (walkie talkie)
Full duplex – simultaneous two way communication (telephone, LAN,
etc.)

Why Frequency Domain?
In frequency domain we get better picture of the frequency contents in a signal.

Frequency bandwidth of the signal can be calculated/ determined and compared with
the available bandwidth.
