Transmission is sending and receiving information from one device to another. It can be used for various purposes, such as communication, data transfer, or broadcasting. Transmission typically occurs over either wired or wireless networks using multiple protocols and technologies such as Ethernet cables, radio waves, fiber optics cables, infrared signals, or satellite links.

The most common transmission type is through digital media, which involves encoding the message into binary code before it’s sent out across a network connection. This makes it easier to send large amounts of information quickly without any errors in transmission due to signal interference from noise sources like electrical lines and other devices on the same network. Digital transmissions are also more secure since they use encryption techniques that make them difficult for hackers to intercept and decode sensitive data being transmitted between two points on a computer network system.

Data compression can also be used during transmission to reduce file size while still maintaining accuracy when transmitting large files over long distances where bandwidth may not be sufficient enough otherwise; this helps improve efficiency by decreasing the overall time needed for successful delivery while conserving resources at both ends (i.e., sender/receiver). In addition, many different checksums ensure that no errors occur during transit by verifying integrity at each step along its journey; this help guarantees reliable delivery even if some parts become corrupted due to external factors outside our control like bad weather conditions, etcetera.
