Digital communication system

Abstract: The dispatcher''s equipment and each mobile unit in a police patrol car has a standard frequency modulated (FM) transceiver for communicating with voice messages. Each mobile unit also has digital circuitry for identifying itself, selecting a prescribed digital code message, synchronizing its operation with that of circuitry in the dispatcher''s equipment, converting the digital message to an audio signal for transmission by the FM transceiver, converting an audio signal received by the transceiver to a digital message, and presenting a visual display of digital messages transmitted and received. The dispatcher''s equipment includes similar circuitry for selecting, displaying, transmitting and receiving digital messages. In order to synchronize transmitting and receiving circuitry, each receiving circuit resets counters in an associated clock circuit on the leading edge of each digital input having a high logic level. Each mobile unit is manually actuated to transmit a signal acknowledging receipt of a digital message. The dispatcher''s equipment automatically transmits a signal acknowledging receipt of a digital message. Routine digital messages from mobile units such as requests to go off duty for lunch or for a status check on an automobile license plate number are processed automatically by a digital computer in the dispatcher''s equipment. The assignment/availability status of mobile units and recent digital messages received therefrom and transmitted thereto are visually displayed on the dispatcher''s equipment.

Condicionantes en la calidad de los contenidos de los cibermedios ecuatorianos: convergencia periodística, agenda temática e inmediatez

Abstract: This paper aims to determine the conditioning factors of the quality of news stories in digital journalism. The research addresses the quality of fifteen online media, and assesses them according with their original media outlet: radio, television or print.

Second, the prominence of certain themes and their relationship with the development of some characteristics associated with quality journalism. Third, the immediacy as an homogenizer element in all online media. Thereby, we identify two elements that cause a heterogeneous development of the journalistic profession on the Internet and a third element that contributes to the uniform presentation of news stories in digital journalism.

Estudio sobre frecuencia de búsqueda y consulta de noticias por parte de los jóvenes

Abstract: This study is connected to the interest about the informational behavior of young university students. Specifically, it focuses on the analysis of the frequency of searching and retrieving of news. This paper takes into account the reasons to access news. Also, media and modes of communication used by young people to get news are also analyzed. It also aims to establish a relationship between the frequency of access and the readiness to spread the news, and define the methods used for this purpose. The study is based on a survey conducted with a non-probability sampling of young university students. Among the results we highlight the high level of queries and the combined use of conventional and digital media, regardless of the frequency of access to news. Also the direct influence between the frequency of access and the dissemination of news by young people is also ruled out.
