Advantages:
1. Coaxial cables support high bandwidth.
2. It is easy to install coaxial cables.
3. Coaxial cables have better cut-through resistance so they are more reliable and
durable.
4. Less affected by noise or cross-talk or electromagnetic inference.
5. Coaxial cables support multiple channels

Function:
Physical layer:-
Translating messages into physical signals on the wire - and vice versa.
The physical layer also provides the common electrical interface for all.
FOUNDATION fieldbus devices. It is defined by approved standards (IEC
61158-2 and ANSI/ISA 50.02,)
Data Link & Application layers:-
It combines several technologies that together control transmission of data on the
fieldbus.
The data link and applications layers provide a standard way of "packaging" the

Ans. Modulation: 2M
It is defined as the process of superimposing a low-frequency signal on a high-frequency Definition
carrier signal.
2M need
Need of modulation.
The baseband transmission is a low frequency transmission. And it cannot transmit for
long distance. So to overcome this limitation, modulation is required.
Modulation is necessary in communication system because of the following reasons
1. Reduction in the height of antenna
2. Avoids mixing of signals
3. Increases the range of communication
4. Multiplexing is possible
5. Improves quality of reception
b) Draw layered architecture of TCP/IP model and state function of each layer. 4M

e) List different modes of propagation in fiber optic cable. Describe any one with 4M
suitable diagram.
Ans. Different modes of propagation of light in fiber optic cable are as follows : 1M Listing
1. Step-index multimode fiber
2. Graded-index multimode fiber 2M
3. Single-mode fiber Explanation
1M
1. Step-index multimode fiber:
diagram
Has a large core, up to 100 microns in diameter. As a result, some of the light rays that
(Any one
make up the digital pulse may travel a direct route, whereas others zigzag as they bounce
mode)
off the cladding. These alternative pathways cause the different groupings of light rays,
referred to as modes, to arrive separately at a receiving point. The pulse, an aggregate of
different modes, begins to spread out, losing its well-defined shape. The need to leave
spacing between pulses to prevent overlapping limits bandwidth that is, the amount of
information that can be sent .Consequently, this type of fiber is best suited for
transmission over short distances, in an endoscope, for instance.

3. Single-mode fiber: has a narrow core (eight microns or less), and the index of
refraction between the core and the cladding changes less than it does for multimode
fibers. Light thus travels parallel to the axis, creating little pulse dispersion. Telephone
and cable television networks install millions of kilometers of this fiber every year.
Explanation:
Number of nodes:
Fortunately, HART allows for multiple master nodes, so that the control system AND a
hand-held communicator can both be connected to the loop and can communicate with the
device at the same time.
Speed:
The HART Protocol communicates at 1200 bps without interrupting the 4-20mA signal
and allows a host application (master) to get two or more digital updates per second from
a smart field device.

Subnet Traffic Control: Routers (network layer intermediate systems) can instruct a 2M
sending station to “throttle back” its frame transmission when the router’s buffer fills
up.
Logical-Physical Address Mapping: translates logical addresses, or names, into
physical addresses.

forwarded by subnet intermediate systems, to produce billing information.

Description:-
PROFIBUS networks make use of three separate layers of the OSI Network
Model.
First, PROFIBUS describes the application layer. There are multiple versions of
PROFIBUS that handle different types of messaging at the application layer.
Some of the types of messaging PROFIBUS supports include cyclic and a cyclic data
exchange, diagnosis, alarm-handling, and isochronous messaging.
PROFIBUS does not define layers three through six. It does, however, define the data
link and physical layers, layers one and two.
The data link layer is completed through a Field bus Data Link, or FDL. The FDL
system combines two common schemes, master-slave methodology and token
passing. In a master-slave network, masters, usually controllers, send requests to
slaves, sensors and actuators. The slaves respond accordingly.
PROFIBUS also includes token passing, a system in which a “token” signal is passed
between nodes. Only the node with the token can communicate.
The token passing concept is like the speaking conch; only the person with the conch
is allowed to talk.
Finally, PROFIBUS defines a physical layer, though it leaves room for flexibility.
PROFIBUS systems can have three types of media. E.g. Standard twisted-pair wiring
system (RS485), fiber-optic transmission.
PROFIBUS uses the bus topology.
c) List features of IEEE 802.3 protocol. Describe CSMA/CD used for it. 6M
