Data Communications and Networking is designed to help students understand the basics of data communications and networking, and the protocols used in the Internet in particular by using the protocol layering of the Internet and TCP/IP protocol suite. Technologies related to data communication and networking may be the fastest growing in today's culture. How information is transformed depends on its original format and on the format used by the communication hardware. So, conversion methods includes Digital-to-digital conversion, Line coding, Analog-to-digital conversion, Sampling, Digital -to- analog modulation, Analog -to -analog modulation
Conversion methods, Line coding, Unipolar, Polar, Manchester and Differential Manchester, Bipolar play the important roles in data communicationa and networking
