Introduction to Communication
Definition :
— Communication is defined as the act of transferring
information from one place, person or group to
another.
— Every communication involves (at least) one sender, a
message and a recipient.
= The communication branch is the oldest branch of
the electronics field
Telecommunication means communicating at a
distance.
— A communication system is the means of conveying
the information from one place to the other.
= This information can be of different types such as
sound, picture, music, computer data etc.
— The field of communication engineering started
developing rapidly in the-nineteenth ‘century when
the telegraph, telephone and then the radio were
invented
— The development was still faster in the twentieth
century when first the black and white and then
colour TVs were brought in use.
Then came the age of satellite communication, cable
TV, mobile telephones etc.
- In order to understand the subject, itis necessary to
understand the basic concepts in communication
engineering such as, modulation,
noise,
demodulation, information theory ete.
