This is the MCQs in Analog Transmission from book the Data Communications and Networking 4th Edition by Behrouz A. Forouzan. If you are looking for a reviewer in Electronics Systems and Technologies (Communications Engineering) this will definitely help you before taking the Board Exam.
In this particular topic you have learned the two types of conversion: digital-to- analog conversion and analog-to-analog conversion. If you skip the summary visit Analog Transmission which refers to the transmission of analog signals using a band-pass channel.
Begin and Good luck!
