Consider the following communication technologies : 1. Closed-circuit Television 2. Radio Frequency Identification 3. Wireless Local Area Network Which of the above are considered Short-Range devices/technologies ? Correct Answer 1, 2 and 3

The correct answer is 1, 2 and 3.

Key PointsShort Range Devices (SRD)

  • Short Range Devices (SRD) are radio devices that offer a low risk of interference with other radio services, usually because of their transmitted power, and hence their range is low.
  • The definition 'Short Range Device' may be applied to many different types of wireless equipment including various forms of:
    • Access control (including door and gate openers).
    • Alarms and movement detectors
    • Cordless audio devices, including wireless microphones.
    • Closed-circuit television (CCTV): CCTV (closed-circuit television) is a TV system in which signals are not publicly distributed but are monitored, primarily for surveillance and security purposes. 
    • Wireless Local Area Networks: A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a wireless distribution method for two or more devices.
      • WLANs use high-frequency radio waves and often include an access point to the Internet.
      • A WLAN allows users to move around the coverage area, often a home or small office, while maintaining a network connection.
      • A WLAN is sometimes called a local area wireless network (LAWN).
    • Radio Frequency Identification: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio waves to passively identify a tagged object.
      • It is used in several commercial and industrial applications, from tracking items along a supply chain to keeping track of items checked out of a library.

Read the following passage carefully and choose the most appropriate answer to the question out of the four alternatives.
The human eye is a complex part of the body that is used for seeing. Eyes enable people to perform daily tasks and to learn about the world that surrounds them. Sight, or vision, is a rapidly occurring process that involves continuous interaction between the eye, the nervous system, and the brain. When someone looks at an object, what he really sees is the light reflected from the object. This reflected light passes through the lens and falls on the retina of the eye. Here the light induces nerve impulses that travel through the optic nerve to the brain and then over other nerves to muscles and glands.
The eye is similar to a television camera. Both the eye and the television camera convert light energy to electrical energy. The eye converts light to nerve impulses that are interpreted by the brain as the sense perception called sight. A television camera converts light to electronic signals that are broadcast and transformed into light images in a television receiver. It is wonderful that human eyes blink an average of once every six seconds. This washes the eye with the salty secretion from the tear or lachrymal glands. Each tear gland is about the size and shape of an almond. These glands are situated behind the upper eyelid at the outer corner of the eye. After passing over the eye, the liquid from the gland is drained into the nose through the tear duct at the inner corner of the eye. The eye is similar to the television camera because both
