计算机网络 第二章_习题解答（The second chapter of the computer network） Learning problem 1. What are the functions and main features of the physical layer? Physical layer and the physical interface between the network equipment features and communication rules, the rules on the physical link to establish, maintain and removal (physical path between communication nodes) the required mechanical, electrical, functional and discipline characteristic, its function is to receive the data link layer data frames, implement the physical layer protocol and establish a connection between two communication equipment, and transmission bitstream in sequence, to ensure correct use of transmission media for data transmission. The main tasks of the physical layer can be described as identifying and transmitting some of the features of the media interface, namely: (1) mechanical properties: specify the shape and size of the connector used, the number of leads and the arrangement, fixation and locking device, etc. This is similar to the definition of power plugs for various specifications in daily life. (2) electrical characteristics: the range of voltages that appear on each line of the interface cable. For example, a voltage greater than 4.7 volts is considered high level, i.e. the received bit is 1. (3) functional characteristics: indicating the significance of a voltage indicating a certain level of the line. (4) discipline characteristics: specify the order of occurrence of various possible events for different functions. What kinds of media are commonly used? What are the characteristics of each? Steering transmission media: twisted-pair (cheap, resistance to electromagnetic interference), coaxial cable, long service life, wide frequency band, stable quality, low interference, high reliability, convenient maintenance, mature technology), optical fiber, 1) the communication capacity is very large 2) the transmission loss is small, the relay distance is long, and the special economy is transmi
