Telecommunication is the transmission of signals over a distance for the purpose of communication. In earlier times, this may have involved the use of smoke signals, drums, semaphore, flags or heliograph. In modern times, telecommunication typically involves the use of electronic devices such as telephones, television, radio or computers. Early inventors in the field of telecommunication include Alexander Graham Bell, Guglielmo Marconi and John Logie Baird. Telecommunication is an important part of the world economy and the telecommunication industry's revenue was estimated to be $1.2 trillion in 2006.

What is the most important telecommunications technology for safe oil and natural gas industry in the future?
Q. The question reads: What is the most important telecommunications technology necessary to promote the safe and efficient operation of pipelines and other facilities in the oil and natural gas industry for the next five years? this is an essay question that i am supposed to answer. I don't even know the current telecommunication technologies for oil and natural gas. Any knowledge on the subject would be appreciated

A. Optical computing. No electricity transmitted, so no sparks. A break in the pipeline fractures some light pipes only. Solar cells/storage batteries drive the nodes locally, and optical computing requires virtually no electrical power to drive the node's chassis. As time continues, solar light energy will be harnessed to provide the light source for an optical computer's switchgear. A collector will gather light to produce electricity within a sealed "head", and also charge a light pipe with filtered photonic power to feed the processors. Optical computing was introduced in the 1970's, gained momentum in the 1980's. The B-2 Stealth Bomber uses optical computing extensively, to reduced the airborne metal content of the bird (radar cross-secti [cont.]

Where can I work on an ON-LINE degree for telecommunications?
Q. The degree must be able to be obtained on-line and the college or university must offer the degree in telecommunications. Please do not answer the question with a vague "check this university." Thanks. The first person answering this question in a helpful way will get the 10 points. I have already searched on line and couldn't find an answer. DeVry has no undergrad degree in Telecommunications

A. Devry University, has all degree programs, I believe up to a Master in Telecom, computer science and other info tech courses, and they're all online.

How difficult is it to find work out of college with a B.S in Telecommunications?
Q. I would like to get into radio broadcasting. I realize I would probably have to pay my dues and produce or do something behind the scenes for a while. But how difficult is it to find entry level jobs out of college with little experience? I will be attending Ball State, they have the best T-Com facilities in my state and are supposed to be in like the top 10 nationwide so I don't know if that would help me.
Asked by Bob - Wed Jan 28 01:19:40 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In an industry like broadcasting, networking is going to be as important as the classes you take. Make sure to join any professional/student organizations in your field that Ball State offers, and definitely try to do an internship before you graduate.
