Wireless Communication IT AND COMMUNICATION Wireless Communication Communication systems that are not connected by wires of any kind. Types of wireless Communication • Infrared • Bluetooth • Near Field Communication (NFC) • WiFi • LiFi Electromagnetic Waves • Electromagnetic waves are produced when an electric field comes in contact with the magnetic field. • It can also be said that electromagnetic waves are the composition of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. Wavelength and Frequency • A wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks of a wave. This distance is given in meters (m) or fractions thereof. • Frequency is the number of waves that form in a given length of time. It is usually measured as the number of wave cycles per second, or hertz (Hz). Radio Waves • Radio waves are at the lowest range of the EM spectrum, with frequencies of up to about 30 billion hertz, or 30 gigahertz (GHz), and wavelengths greater than about 10 millimeters (0.4 inches). • Radio is used primarily for communications including voice, data and entertainment media. Microwaves • Microwaves fall in the range of the EM spectrum between radio and IR. • They have frequencies from about 3 GHz up to about 30 trillion hertz, or 30 terahertz (THz), and wavelengths of about 10 mm to 100 micrometers (μm). • Microwaves are used for high-bandwidth communications, radar and as a heat source for microwave ovens and industrial applications. Infrared • Infrared is in the range of the EM spectrum between microwaves and visible light. • IR has frequencies from about 30 THz up to about 400 THz and wavelengths of about 100 μm to 740 nanometers (nm). • IR light is invisible to human eyes, but we can feel it as heat if the intensity is sufficient. Visible Light • Visible light is found in the middle of the EM spectrum, between IR and UV. • It has frequencies of about 400 THz to 800 THz and wavelengths of about 740 nm to 380 nm. • More generally, visible light is defined as the wavelengths that are visible to most human eyes. Ultraviolet • Ultraviolet light is in the range of the EM spectrum between visible light and X-rays. • It has frequencies of about 8 × 1014 to 3 × 1016 Hz and wavelengths of about 380 nm to about 10 nm. • UV light is a component of sunlight; however, it is invisible to the human eye. • It has numerous medical and industrial applications, but it can damage living tissue. X-rays • X-rays are roughly classified into two types: soft X-rays and hard X-rays. • Soft X-rays comprise the range of the EM spectrum between UV and gamma rays. Soft X-rays have frequencies of about 3 × 1016 to about 1018 Hz and wavelengths of about 10 nm to about 100 picometers (pm). • Hard X-rays occupy the same region of the EM spectrum as gamma rays. The only difference between them is their source: X-rays are produced by accelerating electrons, while gamma rays are produced by atomic nuclei. Gamma-rays • Gamma-rays are in the range of the spectrum above soft X-rays. Gamma-rays have frequencies greater than about 1018 Hz and wavelengths of less than 100 pm. • Gamma radiation causes damage to living tissue, which makes it useful for killing cancer cells when applied in carefully measured doses to small regions. • Uncontrolled exposure, though, is extremely dangerous to humans. Infrared • Short range communication • Requires line of sight Wireless • Cannot penetrate walls Communication • Designed to support only two- way connections on a temporary basis Wireless Communication Bluetooth • Short Range Communication • Devices connected in a Bluetooth network communicate with each other using ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio waves. • Operates on Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping • Operational frequency – 2.4 GHz • Introduced initially to replace cables • Range less than 10 m Wireless Communication Near Field Communication (NFC) • Contact-less communication technology based on a radio frequency (RF) field using a base frequency of 13.56 MHz. • Peer-to-peer communication • Operating frequency- 13.56 MHz • NFC devices must be near each other • Range less than 10 cm • NFC devices can act both as a reader and as a tag Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) • Digital data encoded in RFID tags or smart labels are captured by a reader via radio waves. • Uses Automatic Identification and Data Capture technology • Hundreds of tags can be read in seconds • No line of sight required • There are two types i)Active type ii)Passive type • Range upto 100 m • One way communication only WiFi • Wi-Fi stands for “wireless fidelity” • Operating frequency -2.4GHz or 5.2GHZ bands • Security protocols used- WEP,WPA,WPA2 • Range- 150 feet indoors and 300 feet outdoors for 2.4 GHz • Types of WiFi technology: • Wi-Fi-802.11a • Wi-Fi-802.11b • Wi-Fi-802.11g • Wi-Fi-802.11n LiFi • LiFi stands for “Life Fidility” • Transmits data via light • Almost 100 times faster than WiFi • Speeds of up to 224 gigabits per second. • Li-Fi runs on light waves-380 nm to 780 nm wavelength • Li-Fi signals cannot pass through walls • More secured compared to WiFi. Working of Mobile Phones Evolution of Mobile Networks • 1St Generation Mobile Network 1G • Introduced in 1980s;Speed- 2.4 Kbps to 14.4 kbps;Supports Voice only • 2nd Generation Mobile Network 2G • Introduced in 1990s;Speed-14.4 Kbps to 50 Kbps;Supports Voice and Data • 3rd Generation Mobile Network 3G • Introduced in 2001;Speed- 3.1 Mbps;Supports Voice and data • 4th Generation Mobile Network 4G • Introduced in 2009;Speed- 100 Mbps;Supports Voice and data • 5th Generation Mobile Network 5G • Introduced in 2019;Speed- 10 Gbps;Supports Voice and data 5G Technology • Wireless communication technology using radio waves or radio frequency (RF) energy to transmit and receive data. • 5G technologies will enter services gradually, beginning now and advance to a full range of services by 2024. • It is estimated that 5G will have space for more than 7 trillion devices. • It would offer faster speed, greater coverage, less latency and high scalability • In India 5G connections is estimated to reach 88 million by 2025.

  • 6.Science and Technology
    6.Science and Technology Science and Technology in India 1. India boasts of many contributions such as the first use of zero as revealed by the Bakshali manuscript. However, India now needs to look ahead of its past laurels and move from being a net consumer of knowledge to becoming a net producer as it emerges as one of the world’s largest economies. According to WIPO, India is the seventh largest patent filing office in the world. However, India produces fewer patents per capita. 2. Current situation 1. India has become a major destination for outsourced R&D activities. We currently have more than 1,100 R&D centres set up by MNCs such as IBM, Google, etc. 2. Indian scientists are at the forefront of some global groundbreaking work. For example, 37 Indian scientists from nine Indian institutions played a key role in the discovery of gravitational waves that received the Physics Nobel prize in 2017. Indian scientists also contributed to the discovery of a neutron star merger at Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO), USA. 3. The development of Brahmos, advanced air defence supersonic interceptor missiles, diverse missiles and rocket systems, remotely piloted vehicles, light combat aircraft (LCA), etc., are brilliant examples of India’s progress in strategic and defence technologies. 4. India now ranks amongst a handful of nations that have credible capabilities in the field of space technology. The upgrading from SLV to ASLV and PSLV to GSLV, the first moon orbiter project Chandrayan-1, Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) at the cheapest price and the recent simultaneous launch of 104 satellites are India’s significant achievements.

    DHRUV TIMES 29.06.20 ALL INDIA EDITION Dhruv’s Times Our motto: “If you read, you will succeed!” Vol. 52 29/06/20 From the Hey guys, welcome to this edition of your favorite kids’ newspaper, DT! Guys, today I went to my school to get all my supplies for the term, and Editor’s believe me, I got a little nostalgic when I entered the gates of the school. I even went to my class because my mother thought that there desk would be something left in my locker from my previous grade. And boy, what nostalgia! The attendance space were teacher used to write our class strength, the whiteboard, the lockers, the drawers, you name it, everything! I was so happy that after 3 months, I was back to my class again, for a brief moment. There were teachers in the school too. There was the Vice-principal, Ms. Priyadarshini, and a bunch of other people too, but not many that I recognized. Okay, enough about this. Let’s start this paper! Guys, I want to tell you something serious – would you like to be a boxer? Because I just saw this interesting movie – Creed 2, and it’s all about the boxer Adonis “Donnie” Creed, who fights with Viktor Drago, whose father killed Donnie’s father in 1985. So he gets revenge when he challenges Viktor to a Boxing match, and that match turned out to be a really painful one. If you ask me though, I’d rather not take a risk. I seriously don’t want to lose blood while playing a sport and believe me, if I die because some maniac punched me to death, like Apollo Creed, Donnie’s father, then my life would suddenly screech to a halt, and I seriously don’t want that to happen.
