This is the MCQs in Multiple Access 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 Multiple Access. At this point, we can say that Data link layer divided into two functionality-oriented sublayers. The upper sublayer is responsible for data link control, and the lower sublayer is responsible for resolving access to the shared media. If you skip the summary visit Multiple Access .
Begin and Good luck!
