    CODECs compress and decompress data to reduce file sizes during transmission. The main transmission modes are simplex (one-way), half duplex (one direction at a time), and full duplex (two-way simultaneous). Wired transmission uses cables like UTP, coaxial, or fiber optic with varying maximum speeds and distances. Wireless uses infrared, microwave, or satellite transmission over shorter or longer ranges with differing bandwidths, speeds, benefits, and limitations. There are currently 19 geostationary satellites providing visible and infrared images for weather observation, oceanography, and atmospheric tracking.

    What is the role of a CODEC? What does CODEC stand for?
    CODEC stands for Compression/Decompression
    CODEC is an algorithm or computer program used to reduce the number of
    bytes used by a large file
    There are three transmission modes used in communication, these are shown
    in the diagram below. Explain what each is and how it operates.

    Transmission Mode Description


    Simplex is a one way only communication standard.
    Broadcast information, or data, can only travel in
    Simplex
    one direction. Examples of simplex include radio
    broadcasting, television broadcasting, computer to
    printer communication, and keyboard to computer
    connection
    Half Duplex is the transmission of data in only one
    direction at any given time. A good example of Half
    Half Duplex
    Duplex includes CB radio or walkie talkie

    Full Duplex is the transmission of data in two


    directions simultaneously. Telephones are full-
    Duplex (Full Duplex)
    duplex devices. Example of full duplex include
    telephones
    The table below shows the main transmission methods that are used.
    Complete the table to find out the key details, benefits, and limitations of
    each.

    How many geostationary satellites are there in orbit and what do they
    provide?
    As of 2019 there are 19 satellites in either operation or standby, they provide
    visible and infrared images of earths surface and atmosphere for weather
    observation, oceanography and atmospheric tracking.
