  2. Duplex (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

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

    There are two types of duplex communication systems: full-duplex (FDX) and half-duplex (HDX). In a full-duplex system, both parties can communicate with each other simultaneously. An example of a full-duplex device is plain old telephone service; the parties at both ends of a call can speak and be heard by the other party simultaneously. The ...

  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. 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.

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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.

  7. Channel access method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_access_method

    A duplexing communication system can be either half-duplex or full duplex. In a half-duplex system, communication only works in one direction at a time. A walkie-talkie is an example of a half-duplex system because both users can communicate with one another, but not at the same time, someone has to finish transmitting before the next person ...

  8. 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 ...

  9. Radiotelephone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiotelephone

    The most common method of working for radiotelephones is half-duplex, operation, which allows one person to talk and the other to listen alternately. If a single frequency is used, both parties take turns to transmit on it, known as simplex.
