THE EFFECT OF COMPUTER ON OUR TODAY’S ENVIRONMENT

THROUGH WIRELESS, CABLE AND SATELLITE

1. Wireless: wireless technology can provide many benefits to computing

including faster response to queries, reduced time spent on paper work,
increased online time for users, just I time and real time control. Tighter
communication between clients and host.
Wireless technology has helped the world to become global which makes t
quickened and easy to access data making communication faster than ever
before.
The following are example of wireless technology
a. WI-FI: this is a wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to
provide wireless high-speed Internet access. A common misconception is
that the term Wi-Fi is short for "wireless fidelity," however Wi-Fi is a
trademarked phrase that refers to IEEE 802.11x standards. Which enable
one to get information such as online books, sending of emails etc
b. ENTERTAINMENT: with the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology it enable
one to connect to wireless speaker or earphones via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi
which eradicate the handles of wires and more .
c. WIRELESS CHARGING: this technology is catching on like wild fire and
involves charging your phone without having it physically connected to the
charger. It charges the phone better through electromagnet induction to
the regular charging time
d. HOME SECURITY: instead of investing in security personal or heavy
duty security wire system, wireless technology offers a wireless camera
that can be monitored from any part of the world. Also there are
Bluetooth enable doors, gate etc.
2. CABLES: cable is the medium through which information usually moves
from one network devices to another, there several types of cables which
are commonly used with LHN. In some cases a network will utilize only one
types of cable other network will use a variety of cables types.
3. SATELLITES: satellites communication is an electronic package place in
an orbit. Its prime objective is to make communication easy. This has
played a major contribution to the pattern of international
communication. Through the microwave in the space which uses a
geosynchronous to rely the radio signal transmitted from the ground
station.
ADVANTAGES OF SATELLITE
 Through satellites transmission coverage communication has been
made easy and smooth with both locally and international boundaries
DISADVANTAGES OF SATELLITE
 Design, development, investment and insurance required higher cost
 There can be congestion of frequency
 There can be delay of frequency which cause propagations or echo over
the telephone connection.
