I am currently preparing myself for the exam in Networking and I got some questions:
Are both UDP and IP unreliable to the same degree? Why or Why not?
What is DC component and baseline wandering in digital transmission?
I am actually not very good in physics – so if someone could give me the answer for the second question in “easy English” that would be great
Concerning the UDP/IP question:
Both are not of the same degree of
unreliability.
UDP is more unreliable, because its header is simple and there is no error detection mechanism.
But IP uses pseudoheader and error correction and detection facilities. IPv4 is unreliable, but not as UDP.
