What is NBDP?
Narrow Band Direct Printing
What are the two methods of communications used in NBDP?
ARQ and FEC

What is ARQ? Explain
One –to-one communication

ARQ – It is a error detection and error correction method
In ARQ mode,
BOTH SATIONS (on communication)  transceivers are ON position
Messages are sent in packets
Each packet contains 3 characters

If the receiving station not received correctly…that means..
If there is any error at the receiving end,
It will ask for repetions automatically
And
This  will be maximum 31 repetetions

What is FEC? Explain
One-to-several OR one-to-many communication
In FEC mode,
The transmitting station and other stations (on communication)  transceivers are
ON position
In transmission of message,
Each character is repeated TWICE
\and
Missed character (if any) will be printed as *


Type of aerial used?
Quarter wave aerial (SSB aerial)

Speed of transmission?
ARQ – 50 bauds      FEC – 100 bauds

Frequency covered?
MF marine band and HF marine band

What is baud?
Unit of speed of digital transmission

What is the ID used in NBDP?
SELCAL


How the charges are calculated in NBDP?
ON DURATION

What is the bandwidth of NBDP?
170 Hz
(85 Hz + 85 Hz)
