Major disadvantage of asynchronous transmission is that the transmission lines is idle during the time intervals between transmitting characters.

What transmission is data sent in a constant stream of frames?

synchronous transmission. In a asynchronous transmission, data is sent as individual data bytes


What the different between synchronous and asynchronous?

In asynchronous transmission , the receiver and the transmitter each use their own clock signals so its not possible to know when a word starts and stops. while in synchronous , the receiver and the transmission have common clock signals.

What are the similarities and differences between synchronous and asynchronous transmission modes?

Asynchronous transmission refers to the case when the sending initiate transmission of byte at any instant of time. In asynchronous transmission only one byte is sent at a time and there is no time relation between consecutive bits. This transmission is also referred to as start-stop transmission.This is achieved by providing two extra bits, a start bit at the beginning and a stop bit at the end of a byte. The start bit always "0" and is prefixed to each byte. The stop bit is always "1" and also suffixed to each byte usually 1,1.5 or 2 bits.ANSWERED BY= SATISH KUMAR (AKASH VERMA) [LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY LUCKNOW]

Why are asynchronous protocols inherently slow?

They handle each character in a bit stream independently, They demarcate characters in transmission with start and stop bits, They apply variable-length gaps between characters in a transmission.
