Key Points

  • In a communication system, the transmitter is located at one place, the receiver is located at some other place (far or near) separate from the transmitter and the channel is the physical medium that connects them.
  • Depending upon the type of communication system, a channel may be in the form of wires or cables connecting the transmitter and the receiver or it may be wireless.
  • The purpose of the transmitter is to convert the message signal produced by the source of information into a form suitable for transmission through the channel. Hence, Statement 1 is correct.
  • If the output of the information source is a non-electrical signal like a voice signal, a transducer converts it to electrical form before giving it as an input to the transmitter.
  • When a transmitted signal propagates along the channel it may get distorted due to channel imperfection.
  • Moreover, noise adds to the transmitted signal and the receiver receives a corrupted version of the transmitted signal.
  • The receiver has the task of operating on the received signal.
  • It reconstructs a recognizable form of the original message signal for delivering it to the user of information. Hence, Statement 2 is correct.
  • There are two basic modes of communication: point-to-point and broadcast.
  • In point-to-point communication mode, communication takes place over a link between a single transmitter and a receiver.
    • Telephony is an example of such a mode of communication.
  • In contrast, in the broadcast mode, there are a large number of receivers corresponding to a single transmitter.
    • Radio and television are examples of the broadcast model of communication

A passage is given with five questions following it. Read the passage carefully and select the best answer to each question out of the given fouralternatives. Just as space permeates everything in the universe, love permeates every part, every aspect of creation. If there is one answer to the question, “How and why doesthis world exist?” the answer, in one word, is Love. Rather, the answer is Pure Love, since the word love has lost its meaning. Your very existence is an expression of pure unconditional love of the Source (you may call it Consciousness, Creator, God, Divine Self). This is the truth of your being.True love transcends both love and hatred. It is unconditional, unquestioning, boundless, unchanging love. It is overflowing love of the Source for the Source throughall of creation. True love is way beyond the personalized love that two or more individuals assert on one another. Personalized love, though apparently selfless, is rooted in desiresand conditional satisfaction. We have been brought up in a society that judges love based on conditions. We have been made to believe that we can receive love only when we fit into peoplesexpectations. If we are not good enough, we will be deprived of love. These beliefs have influenced the collective psyche of families, groups, communities, and societies since generations to such an extent that love has been reduced tofear of denial. We need to shift from the paradigm of false conditional love to the essence of pure unconditional love . The experience of true love comes with surrender of the false I, in letting go of the feeling of separateness. Without this sacrifice, it is not possible to attain divinelove. When this separate I is discarded, you embrace everything in oneness and catch a glimpse of pure love. True love can be experienced only through giving, not by demanding. People who exist in your life are not here to love you. They are here to remind you that you arethe Source of Love. By knowing that you are the Source of love, you can love yourself, instead of waiting to receive love from the world. Ask yourself, “Why do I need an agent to love myself?” Waiting for the world to love you, is like hiring an agent to love yourself! It is time for you to honor yourself as the Source of love. You have undertaken this human journey to realize and express the boundless love that you truly are. What does source refers to in the last line of the second para of the passage?
