5 Physical layer! Application! Presentation! Session! Transport! Network! Data Link! Physical! The purpose of the physical layer (PHY) is to create the electrical, optical, or microwave signal that represents the bits in each frame.!

6 PHY functions! Channel coding! encode a series of bits into signals! Modulation! adapt signal to the transmission channel! Multiplexing! share the channel!

7 From bits to signals! Packet! Transmission! Sender! Receiver! Packets! Header/Body! Header/Body! Header/Body! Bit Stream! Digital Signal! Analog Signal!

8 Analog and digital data!! Digital data à modulation/demodulation à analog transmission! Modem:! Analog data à coder/decoder à digital transmission! CODEC:! CODEC!

9 Signaling! Signaling is the method of representing the bits (signals)! The Physical layer standards must define what type of signal represents a "1" and a "0"Bits!

10 Modems speeds! Bit rate (bits/s)! The number of bits processed per unit of time.! Bauds or signal rate or modulation rate (baud):! The number of signaling events per second! 1 kbd = 1000 baud è 1000 symbols per second! 1000 tones in a modem! 1000 pulses in a line code! 00! 11! 01! 10! 4 symbols per second = 4Bd! 8 bits per second = 8 b/s! 1 second!

11 ! Encoding! Encoding is the symbolic grouping of bits (symbols or code groups) prior to being presented to the media.! Advantages using code groups include:!! Reducing bit level error! Helping to distinguish data bits from control bits! Better media error detection!

12 Encoding examples! NRZ - Non return to zero SONET uses NRZ (light off, light on)! High voltage = 1; Low voltage = 0! Voltage does not return to 0 between bits! Manchester encoding Ethernet uses Manchester encoding (10 Mbit/s)! XOR of clock and data!
