  2. Duplex (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_(telecommunications)

    A duplex communication system is a point-to-point system composed of two or more connected parties or devices that can communicate with one another in both directions. Duplex systems are employed in many communications networks, either to allow for simultaneous communication in both directions between two connected parties or to provide a reverse path for the monitoring and remote adjustment ...

  3. Transmission medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_medium

    A signal transmission may be simplex, half-duplex, or full-duplex. In simplex transmission, signals are transmitted in only one direction; one station is a transmitter and the other is the receiver. In the half-duplex operation, both stations may transmit, but only one at a time. In full-duplex operation, both stations may transmit simultaneously.

  4. Two-way radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-way_radio

    Two-way radios usually use a half-duplex communication channel, which permits two-way communication, albeit with the limitation that only one user can transmit at a time. (This is in contrast to simplex communication , in which transmission can only be sent in one direction, and full-duplex, which allows transmission in both directions ...

  5. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    Bit rate control is done at the physical layer and may define transmission mode as simplex, half duplex, and full duplex. The components of a physical layer can be described in terms of the network topology. Physical layer specifications are included in the specifications for the ubiquitous Bluetooth, Ethernet, and USB standards.

  6. Telecommunication circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecommunication_circuit

    In operational terms, a telecommunication circuit may be capable of transmitting information in only one direction (simplex circuit), or it may be bi-directional (duplex circuit). Bi-directional circuits may support half- duplex operation , when only one end of the channel transmits at any one time, or they may support full-duplex operation ...

  7. Universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_asynchronous...

    simplex (in one direction only, with no provision for the receiving device to send information back to the transmitting device) full duplex (both devices send and receive at the same time) half duplex (devices take turns transmitting and receiving) For UART to work the following settings need to be the same on both the transmitting and ...

  8. Communication channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_channel

    Simplex communication, duplex communication or half-duplex communication channel; Return channel; Uplink or downlink (upstream or downstream channel)

  9. Session layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_layer

    The session layer may provide three different dialogue types - two way simultaneous (full-duplex), two way alternate (half-duplex), and one way (simplex). It also provides the mechanisms to negotiate the type of the dialogue, and controls which side has the "turn" or "token" to send data or to perform some control functions.
