7-A-087: MF-HF: SITOR-NBDP #2: Technical Characteristics
7-87J1:
Which of the following statements concerning SITOR communications is true?
ARQ transmissions are made in data groups consisting of three-character blocks.
ARQ transmissions are acknowledged by the Information Receiving Station only at the end of the message.
ARQ communications rely upon error correction by time diversity transmission and reception.
Forward error correction is an interactive mode.
7-87J2:
Which of the following statements concerning SITOR communications is true?
FEC transmissions rely upon an error correction technique, which transmits each character twice.
FEC transmissions are made in data groups consisting of three-character blocks.
FEC transmissions require a "phasing" or "handshaking" process prior to character transmission.
FEC transmissions rely upon parity and "repeat requests" to ensure error correction.
