  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. 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 ...

  5. Two-way radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-way_radio

    Naval air traffic controller communicates with aircraft over a two-way radio headset A variety of portable handheld two-way radios for private use. A two-way radio is a radio transceiver (a radio that can both transmit and receive radio waves), which is used for bidirectional person-to-person voice communication with other users with similar radios, [1] in contrast to a broadcast receiver ...

  6. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    The session layer also provides for full-duplex, half-duplex, or simplex operation, [citation needed] and establishes procedures for checkpointing, suspending, restarting, and terminating a session between two related streams of data, such as an audio and a video stream in a web-conferencing application.

  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. OSI protocols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_protocols

    The session layer controls the dialogues (connections) between computers. It establishes, manages and terminates the connections between the local and remote application. It provides for full-duplex, and half-duplex or simplex operation, and establishes checkpointing, adjournment, termination, and restart procedures. The OSI model made this ...

  9. Radiotelephone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiotelephone

    Dual-frequency working or duplex splits the communication into two separate frequencies, but only one is used to transmit at a time with the other frequency dedicated to receiving. The user presses a special switch on the transmitter when they wish to talk—this is called the "press-to-talk" switch or PTT.
