When I come across this topic “type of communication” just recall back on my academic study on “Communication Network“, almost the same, just that here, I can get know more detail which does not include in my study.
Radio systems use any of three types of communication: simplex, semi-duplex, and full-duplex. The communication type used depends on the number of users and the type of equipment available. This section provides a description of the three types of communication.
Simplex Communication
The most basic type of radio communication is simplex. Simplex communication consists of radio units operating on a single frequency. Because everyone transmits and receives on the same frequency, users cannot talk and listen at the same time. Simplex means transmission in one direction at a time.
