    • A.

      Circuit

    • B.

      Public

    • C.

      Packet

      Signal

    Correct Answer
    A. Circuit
    Explanation
    Circuit switching is most commonly used in systems that require 'real-time' communications, such as voice and live media transmissions. In circuit switching, a dedicated communication path is established between the sender and receiver before the transmission begins. This ensures a continuous and uninterrupted connection, which is crucial for real-time applications where delay or loss of data is not acceptable. Unlike packet switching, which breaks data into small packets and sends them individually, circuit switching guarantees a fixed bandwidth for the entire duration of the transmission, making it ideal for time-sensitive applications.

      Multipath propagation

    • B.

      Singlepath propagation

    • C.

      FHSS

    • D.

      DSSS

    Correct Answer
    A. Multipath propagation
    Explanation
    Multipath propagation refers to the phenomenon where wireless signals travel through multiple paths and reach the receiver at different times. This causes the signals to interfere with each other and results in intersymbol interference (ISI). ISI occurs when the delayed versions of the signal overlap with the current symbol, leading to errors in data transmission. Therefore, multipath propagation is the correct answer as it causes ISI in wireless transmission.
