the details

Back in the day when I was a telecom major

We made the change from analogue to digital

There were still problems with 'degraded'

Transmission. We used amplification

And signal regeneration as needed

Depending on the medium and the span

 

When the medium was wireless we had

More options, some times we got by just

Using 'passive repeaters'.

 

When we used land lines we had

'wire-line drivers' to get a degraded

Signal just before it became totally

"corrupt" it was "regenerated" and

Sent down the line or span another

Few miles. This process could

Happen several times before the

Signal reached its end point.

This kind of repeater was

Considered as an

"active repeater"

 

the devil is in the details

 

the more communication the better?

not necessarily.

 

more in frequency, yes

at least until there is clarity

 

so, communication needs to be

relevant & precise and as

brief as possible

for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.
