Solution

The correct option is C Full duplex

In Full duplex transmission the channel capacity is shared by both communication devices at all times.

Refers to the transmission of data in two directions simultaneously. For example, a telephone is a full-duplex device because both parties can talk at once. In contrast, a walkie-talkie is a half-duplex device because only one party can transmit at a time.

An advantage of half-duplex is that the single track is cheaper than the double tracks. A full duplex communication channel is able to transmit data in both directions on a signal carrier at the same time. It is constructed as a pair of simplex links that allows bidirectional simultaneous transmission.

Simultaneous two-way data or voice transmission. A telephone conversation is full-duplex (both parties, if they so wish, may talk at the same time and be heard), but a walkie talkie conversation is half-duplex (one talks, the other listens).

In telecommunication, duplex communication means that both ends of the communication can send and receive signals at the same time. Full-duplex communication is the same thing. Half-duplex is also bidirectional communication but signals can only flow in one direction at a time.
